Im trying to update my PC so i can run windows 11. The problem is that my TPM is disabled and the only way to enable it is in BIOS. unfortunalty my BIOS is outdated. There is no security tab or advanced options in my BIOS, so im looking for a flash BIOS update. Im currently running Insyder 2.e but i think its been corrupted. Please help. A download link would be great.

Your PC does not have a TPM security chip.
No BIOS update can add hardware to your notebook.
F.2E was the last BIOS update HP released for your notebook.
There's nothing newer.
Also, your PC's processor doesn't meet Microsoft's minimum hardware requirements of an Intel 8th gen core or newer processor and an upgrade to that processor would not be possible.
The only way you can install W11 on your PC is to use a workaround that bypasses the W11 hardware checks.
If you are happy with your PC, and if you are interested in installing W11 24H2 via an in-place upgrade on your PC as is, watch this video, which is the easiest way to do it in my opinion, and I have tried many different ways to do this during the last 3 years.
How to Install Windows 11 on Unsupported PC in 2025 (New Easiest Method, No CMD)
Download the W24H2 ISO file and use that (3rd option).
You can download the free 7-Zip file utility from the link below. The top line is for 64 bit.
You'll have to repeat this procedure each October when Microsoft rolls out the new builds because a PC that does not meet Microsoft's minimum W11 hardware requirements will never automatically get the update to the next build.
Other than that, your PC will continue to get the monthly cumulative and other updates.
That's only a minor inconvenience to have continued OS support beyond October of 2025.
If things don't work right on W11, you have 10 days to easily go back to W10 as long as you don't delete the W1 upgrade files or the Windows.old folder.
