Hey guys. SO i attempted to update my BIOS and it would seem i have corrupted it. Any ideas? I cannot seems to get the key press (Windows+B) to work. I tried getting a bios from the hp website but i am not able to find one that i can flash as a USB key. Any Ideas?

Hi @Kashiff 

 

Additional BIOS recovery options are available if you cannot recover the BIOS using all steps at this Site.

 

1. Contact HP for factory service. You are out of: warranty and probably mainstream HP support. Don't know if HP can provide a replacement MB in this situation since your PC dates back to 2011 or 2012.

 

2. Have a local PC Tech reprogram the BIOS outside of the operating system. This might work using BIOS flashing software if the PC can POST or the Tech may need to use a hardware based Serial BIOS programmer.

 

3. Replace the MB. Try eBay for a replacement MB.

 

Look at the cost to repair vs buying a new PC.

The MB does not post so its dead basically. My Hardware Based BIOS reprogramming tool got busted so i am out of that. i may be ordering a new board based on what IT at my work tells me. I may order the BIOS reprogramming tool again to ensure i have it there when needed
