Issue with updating Compaq cq56 bios

[MDbeckons]

Hey there reader, MDBeckons here and I'll make this quick. I Can't find the bios update files for my pc and it's an old HP brand but it seems as though they forgot about my model. My relevant pc information or specs will be listed below:

Manufacturer: Compaq Presario CQ56

Bios version: F.15

Baseboard Product: 1605

Hi:

The product number you posted indicates that you have a Compaq Presario CQ56-226SI notebook.

It appears that you already have the last BIOS update HP released for that model series...F.15.

HP has retired all support for that model series since it is more than 10 years old.

However, this reputable 3rd party driver website has the drivers for your notebook, and as you can see, they only have the F.15 version available, and they would only have the last one that HP released.
