I recently discovered the there is a BIOS Update version F.28 available for my (work) notebook which is a HP ProBook 6560b booting with version F.20. I hope that this might fix the always-running fans in that machine.

The BIOS Update is available as a SoftPaq for download here:

  • ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp59001-59500/sp59012.cva (text/ini file describing the contents)

According to the BIOS help I should find a BIN and a SIG file in there with the same name as the BIOS variant (which is 68SCE according to dmidecode). That one should be placed on the HP_TOOLS partition into the directory /Hewlett-Packard/BIOS/New and it can be upgraded through the BIOS (if a HpBiosUpdate.efi module exists in /Hewlett-Packard/BIOSUpdate). It looks like everything is prepared properly:

Unfortunately are there no BIN and SIG files in the SoftPaq, only a CAB file which contains files which might be the correct ones but are just named Rom.*. There is also a ROM.CAB which contains some Rom-files as well:

Apr 28, 2016  I have tried to update the BIOS from 214 to 314 and the BIOS show me that everything is ok and the TF will be shut off. After that the computer doesn't turn on again. It seems that I've found a way to launch UEFI BIOS Recovery process on the T100TA. Here is what you need to do. Asus t100ta bios flash win 10, asus t100ta recovery, bios.

The map.ini points to the 68SCE.CAB (1619 is the mainboard's Id according to dmidecode). I could try the files from that file. But I don't want to brick my notebook. Has anybody done this before successfully?

Update bios via usb

The following method works for me with an HP Probook 6460b. I've used Virtualbox (Windows XP guest) with a USB flash drive connected to perform the steps below.

  1. Extract SP60365_E.exe.
  2. I found two files SP60365_E.exe and SP60365_F.exe (depends of yoursystem) in C:SWSetupSP60365hpqflash.
  3. Exactly these files create bootable flash drive.
  4. I created boot flash drive from Virtualbox

You can see my post in this thread on the HP Forums.

BIOS, or Basic Input/Output System, hardware is designed only to update when there are problems. Otherwise, it does not need updating. The BIOS updates are made for specific BIOS problems such as a bug in the system, but the problems are not associated with every version of BIOS. Sometimes, updating the BIOS will result in computer problems. When the computer has problems as a result of the BIOS update, removing the update can usually fix the problem.

Cara Update Bios Via Flash Disk Recovery Software

Download a recovery BIOS. Removing the BIOS update requires completely restoring the BIOS to its original factory condition, which requires a recovery BIOS. Obtain the BIOS that the computer already uses that does not have the update.

Copy the recovery to a USB disk. This saves the recovery.

Plug the USB disk into the computer that has the BIOS system update.

Turn off the computer and unplug the adapter.

Remove the BIOS configuration jumper. The exact location differs for each computer. The configuration jumper is a small rectangular item that is yellow in color and located in the chassis.

Turn the power on and allow it to load. The recovery starts automatically. Wait until the recovery is complete. The computer will either turn off automatically or will give a prompt to turn it off. If it does not turn off automatically, turn it off when prompted.

Remove the USB drive and replace the BIOS configuration jumper. Close the chassis. Turn on the computer. The only way to remove an update is to recover the original BIOS settings.

Tips

Have a professional do the recovery if it seems complicated or the appropriate BIOS is unclear.
