DESKTOP-MT121DS
Microsoft Windows XP (64-bit)
HP Pavilion Notebook - Bios needs to be upgraded before Windows 10 update is possible
 
Options
 Product Name: HP Pavilion Notebook
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Have the same problem as some other HP users: Windows 10 updates does not run because of error message "HP Pavilion Notebook - Bios needs to be upgraded before you can upgrade to Windows 10".

As I learned from similar questions it's a problem of AMD update.

Where can I find the instruction how to act with my laptop?

Product ID  is; 00325-95949-14726-AAOEM

Hope for help.

Hi,

 

You need to run the setup you downloaded as administrator. Right-click on setup file and run as administrator. Once you have installed and rebooted you can wait until Windows tries to install the updated version and it should no longer give error. You can also force the update to take place by going to Microsoft page and clicking on update now.
