Product: HP Z240 Tower Workstation
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Hello,

after upgrading bios of a z240 wks to 1.65 we are experiencing shutdown problems and weird bluescreens. As we have just realized HP has pulled zhis bios version again. Is it save and possible to go back to 1.63 bios version?

Best regards Joerg Odenwald

It is in fact possible to downgrade the bios. But I don't know if this will revert those faulty microcode updates included in 1.65.
