I think I have a BIOS issue on my HP ProBook 650 G1 laptop. I recently updated the bios to L77 ver 1.50 because I was planning to upgrade my win 10 to Win 11 but my computer does not have the right specs.
Instead I will try some Linux system. I installed both Mint and Pop but none of them will boot. I tried different settings in the setup, legacy, UEFI, customized boot and others with no success. The new bios still works with Win 10 (on another disk). Maybe my old bios would have made it for Linux but unfortunately I didn't save it.
WHERE can I get the old version of BIOS driver? I think it was 1.16 but I'm not sure.

You can find all of the download links to the available previous BIOS updates by clicking to expand the Revision History section for the latest BIOS update at the link below.

Read the release notes before selecting a previous BIOS update to install (the links are below the release notes).

 

It appears you can't go back to an earlier release than 1.40.
