That motherboard is relatively old and the HP supported BIOS files will not run in Windows 10. There are other ways to update if it is a extreme need. What version is installed at present?
Also please provide the original information for the model number, even if it is no longer a part of that PC. There seems to be more than one version of the
- ECS MCP61PM-HM

- so please indicate the information stamped or etched on the motherboard. There might even be a part number, which would be helpful.
