HP Notebook 15-ac151sa (ENERGY STAR)

Hello,

Is it possible to download the BIOS for an HP 15-ac151sa (ENERGY STAR) notebook, for installing via a USB stick?

My flatmate's old laptop doesn't boot (screen comes on; fans spin; messages appear on screen when F keys are pressed; but nothing else happens) and the most likely problem is a corrupt BIOS.

I've tried using HP's own library, but there are no drivers available for this laptop.

This is a last-ditch attempt to fix the laptop, before it goes to a landfill.

Thanks.

- Richard
