Hi:

 

What is the product number of your notebook?

 

Use this guide to find that information...please do not post the serial number.

I'll see if there is a BIOS update available.

Hi:

 

You can get the last BIOS update HP released for your notebook from this reputable 3rd party website.

 

Download HP Compaq Presario CQ50-210US drivers for Windows 7/Vista, BIOS (helpjet.net)

 

First file listed.

 

You can only update the BIOS if you are running a supported operating system on your notebook (Vista or Windows 7).
