The Future of BIOS Updates

[Kamil96500]

Can we expect a BIOS update with the latest security patches from 2025/2026?

The current BIOS version is from December 2024, and it’s now 2026.
Support for Windows 11 25H2 and 26H2 would also be nice.

Hi @Kamil96500 ,.

We have escalated this issue internally and are awaiting a fix. Will keep you posted once we have 

an update.

Thank you for the message; I hope there will be a BIOS update soon. Also, the AMD microBIOS in 4000 series laptops continues to cause the FTPM feature to freeze, an issue that has persisted since the release of Windows 11.

You are welcome @Kamil96500 ,

The technical team is working on it and soon will get an update. Thanks for your understanding and patience.

Thank you for the information. I hope BIOS updates will come more frequently (as long as AMD continues to provide support). I know this laptop series is old, but every update gives us hope for a longer lifespan. As long as AMD continues to provide microBIOS updates, just keep updating for security patches and other improvements. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for a quick update without any bugs.

I'm hoping for an FTPM update to fix the micro-stuttering and improve stability 🙂

Best regards

It will install AMD chipset drivers up to version 8.08.x.xx after updating the BIOS (I currently have 8.07.x.xx)

Hi @Kamil96500,

Thank you for the information. I'd like to understand the situation better. Are you facing any issues after the BIOS update, or are you just sharing that the AMD chipset drivers have been updated to version 8.08.x.xx?

[Kamil96500]

Until a BIOS update is released, ftpm will not update the chipset drivers. You can download them publicly from AMD.
