Hi!

 

I want to reload the bios of my laptop. On the support page there is no update available, so I need to find the original bios. The version I have now is F.12.

 

Where can I find it???

 

It is an old laptop, 2012, AMD A6-4400M

 

Product number C2N47UA#ABA

 

Thanks!

Hi:

 

The BIOS version you have now is older than any of the ones you can get from the support page.

The oldest BIOS you can download is F.14 and you can find the BIOS updates under the W8 driver section of the support page.

 

I have no idea what will happen if you run any of the BIOS update files on W8.1.

I want to install windows 10 anyway. It should be compatible with windows 8.1.

When I go to my laptop support page, it offers only the F2A, not the F16. Can you provide a link to it, or something to allow me to get it?

Sorry, I just found F14 going through the detailed description of the driver.
