PC lag and slow-down after BIOS update

[zpekm132]

A issue with lag has started after i have mistakenly downloaded the BIOS update from the HP support assistant (which i admit was a really bad idea), which i admit was a grave mistake, but now i dont know how to revert to the previous BIOS version or anything. Does anyone have any solutions towards this? I think it might be because of a BIOS isssue.

(according to msinfo32, i was 'upgraded' to the AMD F.21 build, 16.03.2022. I don't know what my previous build is but it said that it made a system capture point for the previous one while it updated.)

AMD Ryzen 7 5800

RTX 3050ti

Windows 10 Home Edition

Hi @zpekm132 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

I see that you are facing performance issue on your system after the update. Do not worry, we are here to help you with it.

ry restoring the BIOS to default and check if that helps:

1. Turn off the computer and wait five seconds.
2. Press the Power button to start the computer and repeatedly press the F10 key to enter the BIOS setup menu.
3. On the BIOS Setup screen, press F9 to select and load the BIOS Setup Default settings.
4. Press F10 to Save and Exit.
5. Use the arrow keys to select Yes, then press Enter when asked Exit Saving Changes?
6. Follow the prompts to restart your computer.

Also, run a System test to check on the Hardware components of the PC

1. Shutdown the computer using the power button (pressed and hold for a few seconds until PC powers off)
2. Power the computer back on.
3. As soon as you press the power-on button, immediately begin hitting the Esc button (like tap-tap-tap) before any logo appears. This should open a HP Startup Menu
4. Choose F2 to open System Diagnostics. Follow the on-screen instructions to perform System Test >> Quick test.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
