Product: HP Slimline Desktop - 270-p033w

I would like to upgrade bios on this computer.  Can I still download it here?  I can't seem to find the right place on this hp.com website.

In theory there is no difference between theory and practice, but in practice, there is.

There are 3 different BIOS updates on the support page for your PC.

 

Only one of them will work.

 

You need to use the BIOS update that corresponds with your PC's BIOS SSID.

 

The easiest way to find your PC' BIOS SSID would be to run the Windows System information app.

 

In the search feature on the Windows taskbar:

 

Type: System Information

 

The System information app should show up.

 

Run the app and look for the Baseboard Product line about 1/3 of the way down on the report.

 

The info that appears next to the Baseboard Product line will be the SSID for your PC's motherboard.

 

Update the BIOS using the corresponding download that matches the baseboard product info.
