Hello @el0xren 

 

Before we start a few questions ...

(2) HP warranty valid ?

(3) When was the last time the <thermal paste> of the CPU GPU and bridges was renewed?

HP Recommended

1. F.16 Rev.A is latest for my model.

2. It’s expired.

3. 1-2 months ago.

Updating the BIOS is recommended as standard maintenance of the computer. It can also help resolve the following issues:

  • An available BIOS update resolves a specific issue or improves computer performance.
  • The current BIOS does not support a hardware component or a Windows upgrade.
  • HP Support recommends installing a specific BIOS update.
