Omen Command Center Benchmark not working after HP Inc. Firmware 15.21.0.0 Update

[JRiddle]

Windows Update recently applied a BIOS update called "HP Inc. - Firmware - 15.21.0.0" to my system.

After this update, The Benchmarking function in Omen Command Center - Overclocking no longer runs to completion, freezing at 2%.

I understand that after windows update and BIOs update, you are not getting an overclocking option in the omen command center.

Please rollback the BIOS and check.

I tried to rollback the BIOS but the instructions led to the system shutting down unexpectedly rather than rollback.

@JRiddle I'm afraid if the device had issues when recovering the BIOS, it could lead to a hardware malfunction and I suggest you talk to HP support and discuss your options, follow the below steps to get started:

1) Click on this link - http://www.hp.com/contacthp/

2) Click on Sign-in or select the product using the below step:

3) Enter the serial of your device.

4) Select the country from the drop-down.

5) Click on "Show Options".

Fill the web-form, to populate a case number and phone number for yourself!

Also, if you are having trouble navigating through the above options, it's most likely because the device is out of warranty, if yes? please send me a private message with the region you are contacting us from,
