Hp Envy 15-j028eo
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I tried to update my bios using downloaded bios uppdate hp file "", the computer reboted and the screen went black. 

The computers caps lock blinks 3 times and restarts when power on, tried win+v win+b recovery, also i downloaded HPs 4 in 1 Tool whit the packs of diffrent bios files, and the here comes the fun part the bios for my 1961 is missing in the pack so no luck there.

 

When i unpack the downloaded file from HP whit 7zip or Winzip i gett diffrent files and difrent types, and when i use the built in unpacker and try to make a rescue disk i end up whit files 01966.FD       01961.FD        01961.WPH     a dump folder BIOS0.BIOS , then when i use option to extract bios files to a folder i end up whit     01961.bin   01961.s12       01966.bin      01966.s12....

 

could somebody help me out and explain which files to use for a bios recovery becouse i just cant grasp this,  i am thinking about desoldering my bios chip and bye a EEPROM programmer to gett it to work again, butt i am afraid though because i still don know what bios to flash??????????????????

 

Must i rename the bios files to something special in order to gett dem to work?????????
