Can I improve my BIOS?

[prometeo20081]

Hi

I have a H-CUPERTINO2-H61-uA TX board with an AMI 2.10.1206. I don't know if can I upgraded it to UEFI. At the moment what I need is to enable internal graphics to enable the Quick Sinc feature of the processor i5-2320 and be able to capture clips with windows 10

Any help? Thank you

at the time of writing i have no information on the exact configuration
If you have a graphics card, the integrated graphics processor is automatically disabled

It must be removed, so to take advantage of the integrated

Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD Integrated graphics (DX10.1)

*Integrated video is not available if a graphics card is installed.

• Either integrated graphics or the PCI Express x16 slot are usable at one time; they are not usable concurrently.
• Use of both the DVI and the VGA ports at the same time is supported.

Where did you obtain that BIOS version number?  I checked "Pavillion 6 P6-2065sc", downloaded it's SP58264.exe and read the release info

However, a bios upgrade is not going to solve your audio problem.  I read your post several times and am not sure of the problem.  I used to have an iRig mic and software library I got from 1k multimedia but am no longer into any of that.

Hi

I bought my computer second-hand, very cheap, with the idea of introducing myself in the overclocking workd. HP is let say a serious business-oriented brand and I didn't expect a gamers bios in this machine but I expect to cross flashing it with the BIOS of other more gamers-oriented brands and in that way start the experiments.

Someone told me that my BIOS is not UEFI but if I press F9 Boot Order I can see the UEFI boot and the Legacy boot options. Of course, I took out the small GT530 NVIDIA card just to display with the Integrated Graphics because I wanted to Active it in BIOS and with it to enable the Quick Sync feature of the processor enough for Windows 10 to record clips from me screen.

Hello
it's quite difficult to follow you
If as you said you have this computer model, with this motherboard

Manufacturer's motherboard name: Foxconn
Motherboard name: H-CUPERTINO2-H61-uA TX
HP / Compaq name: Cupertino2
BIOS Version: 7.16 or earlier
you should not have uefi bios, which is normally only available with version 8.xx
Even if this motherboard is special, because it is possible to install graphics cards of the type GTX 960
But I don't understand anyway, we don't talk to you about uefi
Hp computers are notorious for not being able to be overclocked

and no need to deactivate the graphics card
reminder, as it is written from the motherboard page
Integrated video is not available if a graphics card is installed.

Either integrated graphics or the PCI Express x16 slot are usable at one time; they are not usable competitively.
Use of both the DVI and the VGA ports at the same time is supported.
