Bios Update for HP OMEN 875-0XX sp100895 File Name 084FDF25.EXE. Danger Beware!! I have 2 of the HP OMEN Computers. One is a model 875-014 and the other is an 875-024. My computers had F.23 Bios that was working fine. HP put out an important update, F.25. I installed it on both computers. With in a few minutes I knew I should not have done the update. Both machines would lock up. One computer would do a crash dump and restart. The other computer had to be turned off by a long power button press. I got the Bios rolled back to F.23 on one computer and it started working normally. I was not as lucky with the other computer. I tried several methods to roll back the Bios but could not do it. I went to the HP Support and Driver page for the F.25 Bios update. The last line informed me users would not be able to roll back to an earlier Bios for security reasons. Thanks, HP, for putting out a bad Bios Update and locking it so a user could not correct HP’s mistake. One of my HP OMEN computers is now unusable until there is a working Bios Update. Am I the only one tired of computer and software companies pushing out updates that damage you data and or hardware? Only thing to correct my $1200 Gaming Computer is a new Bios update or some program that will allow me to roll back to F.23. How about it HP can you help get my computer running right. I have spent hours trying to trick the Omen in to loading the old Bios like I did for the 875-024, but is not working.
