How do I know if the BIOS update worked on my computer? I can't see if the update worked or not. What is the latest version of the BIOS for my computer? I downloaded the BIOS update from the HP Support Assistant on my computer. After downloading the new BIOS and then after the restart, it doesn't show whether or not the update was installed. There is no information on the update at all anymore. The BIOS update does not show in the "action log" in the HP Support Assistant, so it makes me think the update didn't work?

 

My product number is P0A42AV. The current Bios information shows as :

F.08-06/16/2016.

F.08 Rev.A (Jul 17, 2016) is the latest BIOS version available for your notebook.  If you ever need to see which BIOS version you're running, you can open the System Information utility from the Start Menu or boot into the BIOS (F10) to check.

 

You can find all of the latest HP drivers/software on your notebook's Software & Driver Downloads page here.

Thank you for the speedy response. I used FN + esc to get my BIOS information. I just wasn't sure if it was the latest version. Thanks for the link to my computor information. I appreciate your help, Kalt! :generic:
