Hello I have a hp 240 G7 7DE52ES#ABF.
I updated the BIOS from hp drivers site.
Problem :after bios update the screen is black ( the power light is on).
I tried the update version before (there were 3 updates availables) with the usb key and windows + B trick, The screen lighted the time t update bios.But no more success after restart. Always black.
I tried the windows+B trick to recover the last BIOS working. Always black.
I don(t know whre it comes from but i am annoyed.
I'd like to get back the verison of the BIOS i originnaly had, it seems it was anterior to the BIoses proposed on hpsite.
How an i do ? cheers from France
Edit on another same model, the BIOS version which is installed is the F.56 but i can't find it anywhere.
