Hi,
There is a BIOS version 6.18 that is posted for the same motherboard but under a different model. Unfortunately the installer requires that you must be running Windows 7 which is the safest way to install this BIOS update.
I don't know if anyone has installed the above BIOS update on your model PC. Obviously there is a risk that it might cause your motherboard to fail.

i doubt a bios update will fix a ram problem unless the updated bios update mentions it in the documentation
also in some cases the HP oem motherboard may be cloned from a retail model, the cloned board may have the same board maker and model number except for a few letters at the end of the model name being diffrent between the two
you need to take care, OEM motherboards may have used a diffrent I/O chip than the retail model depending on the OEM feature set.
this I/O chip diffrence is what causes flashing of a retail bios onto a OEM motherboard to fail, bricking the board
