I can’t update BIOS; Too new version.

[SafeMode]

 

 

Hello. I can’t update my BIOS. Right now I have BIOS version F.03, and I downloaded newest version from downloading page for my pc, and BIOS version there is F.23. When I try to update, updating program write that my BIOS version is newer than what I’m installing. How to fix that? If needed some more information, check shots of screen.

@SafeMode , welcome to the forum.

Here is the Software and drivers page for the motherboard: https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-pavilion-gaming-desktop-pc-tg01-1000a/37921127

If you look at the three BIOS updates in the Software and drivers page none of them is for your motherboard. They are SSID: 8643; SSID: 8653 & SSID: 8767.

Here is the Motherboard Specifications page: https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/hp-pavilion-gaming-desktop-pc-tg01-1000a/37921127/document/c069...

If you look at the section titled "Motherboard description" you will see that your motherboard is SSID: 87D7

HP uses their motherboards in many different models with different BIOS/UEFI.  Though it is confusing, they list them in this page even if it is not for the motherboard in the computer.

So that means I can’t update BIOS on my motherboard, because there is no update for my SSID 87D6, or there is some other version that is compatible for my motherboard?

You are correct!  There is no update for your BIOS at this point.  Unless there is a major reason, there probably won't be one.
