Hi,

I'm trying to update the bios of my notebook to the latest version without Windows installed on it.

I've create a USB key containing the bios files using the update tool on another windows machine and try to update the bios using Firmware Update in the UEFI Diagnostic tool I started with "F2" at startup.

 

The issue is, the tool copied several bios files on the USB key, but none match my board serial ID.

The serial ID of my laptop board is 081EB.bin

The files that the key contains:

081EC.bin

081ED.bin

081EF.bin

081F2.bin

081F3.bin

 

I'm certain I've downloaded the right bios update file (I've used the serial number of the computer to get to it and I checked it match the model).

 

Does anybody know what version I am supposed to use in this scenario?
