Hi,

 

I try to upgrade the Bios of my Laptop to F.07 Rev.A which was released on Feb 1, 2018. The file is called sp85085.exe

 

So far I have an USB Stick from HP which I boot using EFI into the Bios update menu: (Similar to Step 4: Update the BIOS in

https://support.hp.com/ie-en/document/c00042629)

 

The problem I have is that sp85085 contains two binary files but no corresponding *.sig files to verify. Only 08311.bin and 08312.bin, hence the update fails.

 

Furthermode I have the suspicion that they are anyway not the correct firmware files since the board id is 83C6, hence the binary should be named 083C6.bin?

 

Other failed attempts where booting the efi files in the CrisisFolder of sp85085.exe.

 

How can I update the Bios without any Bootable Windows available?

Thanks and BR CD
