Product: Pavilion t3440.nl
Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP

Dear forum members,

 

I want to do a bios update for my pavilion t3440, but the drivers and other software list doesn't load, it just keeps looping and looping. I am running windows XP and windows 7. The only extra things that I have installed are a graphics card, an ssd and a floppy drive. The HP support website just doesn't show the bios update. Could someone help me with it?

 

Edit: The reason I want to update the bios is because the bios that is in there doesn't support the Pentium D 900 series processor I put in.

https://support.hp.com/nl-nl/drivers/selfservice/hp-pavilion-t3400-desktop-pc-series/1847446/model/1... is the link I am trying to use. When I selected "Windows XP (32-bits) it just says "HP verzamelt uw resultaten. Dit kan tot 3 minuten duren, afhankelijk van uw computer en verbindingssnelheid. Bedankt voor uw geduld. (HP is collecting your results, this could take up to 3 minutes, depending on your computer and internet speed. Thank you for your patience)". It takes 20 minutes already without results.

Hi

HP usually only support their products for 10 years, and maybe the support is not there.

Also it's Sunday Morning, maybe when the US wakes up, the server will too.
