Cannot Update to F.56

[Dmidnight]

I was able to update from F.53 to F.55 of the BIOS, but it seems that I cannot update to F.56.

This is gaming laptop, and I would like to update for the security. 

The update option is greyed out with the following message: "This BIOS update is not compatible with this device,"

It does appear as the latest one here:

Driver - OMEN by HP - 17t-w100 CTO | HP® Customer Support

I understand how to update the bios using the setup program.  The other methods are scary, and It looks like if there is mistake on the bios which could cause problems.

I am saying the latest driver F.56 installer is saying my OMEN by HP - 17t-w100 CTO is "This BIOS update is not compatible with this device". I was able to update it to from F.53 to F.55. so right now, it is F.55. 

Can you check if it is indeed for my Model or problem with program code not adding this model on the compatible list.

Thanks

Hi@Dmidnight, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

We have done the basic troubleshooting as per the document and the notebook needs to checked taking remote access so that get to know it's a hardware or software issue.

I'd suggest you contact HP in your region regarding the service options for your computer or HP Chat Support Team.

I guess I will just wait for the next update since F.56 Installer does not work for Omen 17t.
