I wonder if there is an old version of the hp nc8430 bios. please help me, it's urgent. I've installed a new bios on the computer, and after 5 minutes it warms up and turns off. his old bio was from 2006.

Hi:

 

Go to your notebook's support page and select the drivers listed under Windows Vista.

 

HP Compaq nc8430 Notebook PC Software and Driver Downloads | HP® Customer Support

 

Click on the F.16 BIOS update and below that, you will see a list of the previous BIOS versions you can install.

 

You can go all the way back to F.0F, December 19, 2006.

You're very welcome.

 

I guess I have a failure to communicate.

 

OK...I will make it easy.

 

Here is the link to the oldest BIOS update on your notebook's support page.
