Hello,

 

i am not having any issues with my system. I am just wondering if anyone may know how often HP releases updates for the BIOS, particularly for systems with AMD processors?

Usually in the first year or two after a machine is released HP posts new updates every few months or as needed to address issues found later. Once a laptop reaches about 2 yrs old there may not be any unless some critical security issue is found like the recent Spectre/Meltdown vulnerabilty.

 

You can check your Support page for any BIOS or other updates. Get your Product number using these instructions:

 
 Once you have the info, use the button at top of this page titled "Support",  click "Software and Drivers" from the menu. On the next page click "Laptops", next page enter your Product Number. After entering  click 'Submit' button. On the next page be sure correct OS is selected-if not click Change to edit .A list will populate with drivers/software.
