HP Recommended
Product: pavillion 550
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (32-bit)

my issue is the same as this old thread (and how i found this form) http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Boot-and-Lockup/A7-Me-FW-Downgrade-Request-Me-Spilock-Failed/td...

 

I have just taken delivery of a refurbished pavillion which has the above BIOS issue, it didnt come with any recovery disk or USB.

 

The company can replace it but its going to be in January, so if i can sort this myself and my kids actually have a christmas present I will obviously be very happy, and slightly less angry lol

 

I cant get it to start in safe mode even (assuming safe mode is f11) any idea of a work around if i cant get in to execute me.bat?

 

thanks in advance
