BIOS Needed

[investigater]

My BIOS is corrupted. Ive tried holding windows key and B while pressing the power button 2-3 seconds and the BIOS recovery doesn't come up. Ive tried everything.... It powers up but nothing else. Ive removed ram and the board will keep.... I cant seen to find a solution and the machine was running great. I even moved the windows drive to another pc and it works fine.... I cant even find a BIOS for this board. Can anyone help please.

Hi

If you can give the SKU:   and perhaps the Main Board SSID then it may be possible to find another HP product with that same Main Board.

Motherboard - AMD 785G(RS880/SB710), Alvorix NO LONGER SUPPLIED

But no actual BIOS.

However it's used in a 103 products so maybe...

But you are now better informed?

I've been through all of those sites and steps and built a list of possible fixes. None of which I can get to work. I cant get the board to reconize anything peripheral wise. I will try and old windows install disk that would load all drivers and such on to the hdd before it would actually install/operate. I wondered about this today at work.  

I am betting the bios link you provided would work but i cant get the board to boot anything ie USB, CD, HDD, ect..... It comes on and runs but no activity that I can see/hear in progressing towards any kind of a boot-up. 

I ordered a different board and processor today but i still want to use this as a second machine. There is nothing wrong with it except the bios and I am positive I can get a work around and save the critter. I assume my HP recovery options are non existant now as I cant even get those steps to work.

Is there another USB and/or CD/DVD work around i am not aware of?

Nothing else I can suggest.
