If you are using HP vision  Hardware diagnostics you cant't find it. Because you are using windows 7 and this  8  version bios is for windows 8. 

 

You must download it from hp sites link

Then click Go and select windows 8

there is bios version 8.17 Rev. A 

 

There is also installation instructions

 

It is not latest but in version 8.20 description is tex:t NOTE: Due to security changes, after this BIOS update is installed, previous versions cannot be reinstalled

 

NOTE: You update this bios at your own risk!!!! 

risk  is that these bioses work only with windows 8

 

Still gtx 1050 can require windows 8 or 10 for full support of UEFI bios.  ???

 

Maybe is programs to backup old bios?

HP Vision Diagnostics has nothing to do with finding BIOS updates that are posted on the support server.
