Bios System Date Update

Trisharae · ‎03-26-2020

I am applying for a work from home job. My system passes all the other tests but the Bios System Date failed. Is there anything I can do about this? I'd appreciate any help you could give me. Thank you

@Trisharae Welcome to HP Community!

I understand that you are unable to update the BIOS.

Do not worry. I will try to fix the issue.

You have to set up the BIOS update on a USB flash drive.

Use a second computer with Internet access to create a BIOS recovery USB flash drive.

Insert a blank USB flash drive into an available port on the second computer.
Go to the HP Customer Support - Software and Driver Downloads page.
Navigate to the product page for your original computer.
Select BIOS from the list that displays, and then review any available BIOS updates.

CAUTION:
Read the Details section to confirm that the BIOS update is more recent then the one installed and that it applies to the original computer. Installing the wrong BIOS could cause your computer to stop working.
- If you do not see a BIOS update listed for your computer, no update is currently available.
- If there are multiple BIOS updates available, identify the motherboard installed on your computer using the information you wrote down from the System Information utility in the previous step.
- If you find a BIOS update, click Download. If HP Download and Install Assistant displays, select Download only, and then click Next. Click Save to save the BIOS update file on your computer.
Click Yes on the User Account Control screen.
On the InstallShield Wizard window, click Next.
Select I accept the terms in the license agreement, and then click Next.
In the HP BIOS Update and Recovery window, click Next.

NOTE:
Windows that display during the update process might vary depending on your computer.
Select Create Recovery USB flash drive, and then click Next.
Select your USB flash drive, and then click Next.
Wait while the BIOS files copy to the USB flash drive.
When The recovery flash drive was created successfully displays, click Finish.
If necessary, click Cancel to close the update utility.
Remove the flash drive from the computer.

Update the BIOS

Use the Hardware Diagnostics UEFI on the original computer to update the BIOS.

Turn on the original computer, and then immediately press the Esc key repeatedly, about once every second, until the Startup Menu opens.
Press the F2 key to open the Hardware Diagnostics UEFI menu.
Make sure the power cord is connected to the notebook. Keep it connected during the BIOS update process.
Insert the USB flash drive that contains the BIOS update into an available USB port on the notebook.
Click Firmware Management or BIOS Management.
Click BIOS Update.
Click Select BIOS Image to Apply.
Click HP_TOOLS-USB Drive.
Click HEWLETT_PACKARD.

Standard example of the File Navigator screen
Click BIOS.
Click Current.
Select the BIOS update file that matches the System Board or Motherboard ID. The ID has a "0" before the board ID (Example: 02291.bin).
Click Apply Update Now. Type the administrator password if prompted.
Wait while the BIOS update installs.

CAUTION:
Do not turn off or restart the computer until the update process completes.
When prompted, click Restart System, or wait for the computer to restart automatically. It might take a few minutes for the computer to restart.

NOTE:
If the update fails, a failure screen displays with additional information. The system might run an automatic BIOS recovery after restarting. Do not attempt to turn off the computer if this happens.
When the lock screen displays, sign in to your computer.
