Are there any updated drivers for HP Pavilion dv6-3236nr?

I'm mostly interested in a bios update.

Hi:

 

HP retired support for that model series since it is more than 10 years old.

 

The only place I know of where you can find drivers for your notebook would be from this reputable 3rd party website.

 

HP Pavilion dv6-3236nr drivers (driverscollection.com)

 

They have BIOS update F.29 as the newest one available.

 

Since the BIOS update was written to be run on Windows 7, if you are using W10, I don't know what will happen if you try and update the BIOS when running an unsupported operating system.

 

It may work fine, or it may permanently wreck your notebook.
