Hi @Gumaty
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
To create a BIOS recovery USB drive for your HP laptop with an Intel i5 processor, you'll need to follow these steps:
Identify Your Model: First, confirm the exact model of your HP laptop. You can usually find this on a sticker on the bottom of the device or in the system information settings.
Visit the HP Support Website: Go to the HP Support page.
Search for Your Product: Enter your laptop model in the search bar to find the appropriate support page.
Download BIOS Recovery File:
- Navigate to the "Software and Drivers" section.
- Select the correct operating system.
- Look for the BIOS section and download the latest BIOS version available.
Create the USB Recovery Drive:
- Use a USB flash drive with at least 2GB of space.
- Format the USB drive to FAT32 (right-click the drive in File Explorer > Format > select FAT32).
- Copy the downloaded BIOS file (it usually has a .bin or .fd extension) to the root directory of the USB drive.
Prepare for Recovery:
- Ensure the laptop is off.
- Insert the USB drive.
- To start the BIOS recovery process, turn on the laptop and press Windows + B keys together before pressing the power button. Hold these keys until you see a logo or a BIOS recovery screen.
Follow On-Screen Instructions: The recovery process will begin, and you’ll be guided through the steps.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
