When looking at the BIOS info it says the BIOS modus is outdated, but I can't find a newer version.

You are running the original factory BIOS, and quite a few updates were issued.

Need exact model and exact BIOS version you are asking about. HP stops writing BIOS at a certain point so it is not hard to understand that the BIOS level may be a version several years old. Are you having some specific issue you think a BIOS update would resolve?

Laptop model : Compaq Presario CQ62 200SD

BIOS version : HP F.15, 24-4-2010

SM BIOS version : 2.6

Version controller : 119.24

BIOS modus : Outdated

 

Operating system : Windows 10, 64Bit

 

Processor : Celeron (R) Dual core CPU T3300 @ 2.00GHz

 

I experienced some black screens and sometimes the laptop will not wake up from sleep, when searched these issues updating the BIOS was one of the things that could help. So I went looking for the BIOS version and found out the BIOS modus was outdated.

 

Best regards,

 

Marko Peters

That is a Microsoft thing. We know you have updated to the latest version from HP. I would not worry about it. It is a little hard to see as the picture is fuzzy but I assume the flash went through successfully and you now have version F.37. This is the latest there is.
