Cannot update bios

[compenthusiast]

Cannot update desktop Z9M78AV to latest version of bios ( I currently have AMI F.01, 10/6/2016)

The bios updates, the restart begins, the bios fails.

Any help from the community would be apreciated.

Release date: F.01 Rev.A Mar 24, 2017

Hi compenthusiast

I only see the original BIOS code offered by HP.

There is no update available for download.

That's the very one that fails. My current bios is for last year; this update is for March 2017.

Thanks very much for the prompt reply.

Hi compenthusiast

I am confused as you already have that BIOS build number installed on your PC.

There is no new update.

That file is the original BIOS HP installed on your PC at the factory.

The March 2017 date is not the build date of that BIOS file. 

You have the latest and only BIOS file available from HP at this time.

You are the second person telling me my bios is up to date. What confused me were the DATES.

 I wrongly assumed the date was the build date.

Thanks very much for clearing this up.

Hi compenthusiast

You are welcome.

Nice PC, by the way.
