BIOS for 86F3 Motherboard
06-25-2021 08:07 PM

I have been searching for so long to find the BIOS of my motherboard. I always like to keep a backup of everything incase anything goes wrong. I cannot find a file for the BIOS of my computer. I see BIOS downloasd for similar models of my motherboard at https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-all-in-one-pc-24-dp0000wa/38323466. My model is 86F3 but I see downloads for 86F0,86F7, and other models similar to that. I'm wondering if the BIOS if either of those will work for me, if there is a BIOS download for my motherboard model, or if it just isn't downloadable.

but no, if an update is not planned for your motherboard, and / or the SSID is different, you should not and normally will not be able to install it.
