HP Pavilion Dv6700 OS/Software :: BIOS Update Failure

Oct 5, 2014

I have an HP Pavilion dv6700

P/N: FK125EA#B1A

Service Tag: dv6880ev 

BTW I downloaded the bios of dv6880ev. Why the heck is the laptop model dv6700 and service tag is dv6880ev?!!?!

I start the laptop up and it freezes at the HP logo screen. Only the ESC key works (Press <ESC> to enable startup message) if i press it fast enough and if i push the F10(BIOS SETUP) key it just hangs at "Please Wait"

Laptop Drivers Link

How it started: I updated the bios of my Laptop from Version F.57 to F.58(Latest). After the laptop shutdown, I immediatly turned it back on. Maybe its because i didn't give it a few seconds to power on by itself?

What I already tried:

-Removing CMOS, ram, HDD wait half an hour and power on again.
-This guide which does not work because HDD is formatted: Recovering the notebook BIOS using a key press combination
-The Phoenix tool procedure found here

How to use the HP BIOS update (uefi) utility

What I want to try but don't know how!

-Creating a new partition on the hard disk(HP_TOOLS) to trick the system that I have the old BIOS and maybe recover using the WIN+B combination?

Acer :: Bios Update Failure 5633Wlmi

Nov 17, 2008

I upgraded to 4 gb and the Bios was only showing 3gb/Vista 4gb.

I updated the BIOS via bootable DOS Fdd after reading things here and knowning that it was not possible via x64 Vista.

Update finished and notebook shutdown, not restart.

Now it will not turn on.

No lights with power adapter or battery.

I have tried the "crisis" disk method. holding fn+esc.

Tried power in and holding Insert.

I've tried with and with out battery/power adapter.

Opened and bridged the clear-cmos for 30 seconds.

Reseated RAM and CPU.

Tried all of this with 1gb, 2gb 3gb and 4gb.

but alas she is still in a coma.......

I have tried Acer support for help but they want it sent to them, I want to avoid this if I can.

Can a failed BIOS really kill a notebook?

I have an Acer Aspire 5100
AMD Turion 64x2 Mobile Technology TL-56, 1.8 GHZ

It has vista home premium preinstalled. Lately I installed Xp on it (Ive done it many times before because its faster) The only thing is that with Xp it shutsdown after some time, 'cuase of the heat. So I thought I'll update the BIOS. It went well but then IT shutsdown! I was afraid of this but it happened. Now my Lap won't boot, nothing comes up, not even a sound! The only thing that work is the dvd driver. The fan goes like it would boot but nothing. I tried to flash it via usb but didn't read the usb.

Im using Acer Aspire 4520. Now my laptop have dead because im update the BIOS firmware on windows vista platform. On 8% progress its 'hang' now i'm can using my laptop.

the many solution i have try on this forum. not done.

FYI on my procedure

2- Open the Acer BIOS from website -> I get the Z03_3626.wph file then rename to bios.wph
3- Copy the bios.wph to Floppy drive
4- Insert the USB floppy to my laptop then remove the battery, hold the FN + ESC button, plug in power then press power button
5- I hear the floppy drive reading on 3minutes then after 3minutes the floopy drive stop and i release the holding FN + ESC button

Dell Inspiron 7720 :: Can't Boot After Bios Update Failure

Feb 22, 2013

I have an Inspiron 17R SE 7720 running Windows 7 64-bit Pro which has been working fine, but I was thinking about getting an mSata flash drive to cache the hard disk, and reading on this forum discovered that my A01 bios version wasn't up to the job, so tried to update the bios tonight.

I downloaded the 7720A12.exe from the Dell site but wanted to backup my bios first.  Again searching this forum, I saw a post that said there was a backup option when running the exe.  Wrong.

Running it from within windows it immediately said it was going to reboot (I wasn't given an option!).  My laptop powered down as if doing a restart, but immediately hung. 

There was nothing but blackness on the screen, no text, no beeps.  It appeared to be stuck in a boot cycle, as the screen back light was coming on, and off, and on, and off etc, for 10 minutes straight. 

I powered down and powered up and I get the dell logo and can enter the bios setup, but after that, no matter what I do, I get a dos based "BOOT MENU" with just these options on:

Network Boot <- does nothing except messes up the display of this menu Setup <- loads the bios settings Diagnostics <- runs a diagnostic program which tests the hardware and reports all tests pass Change boot mode setting <- does nothing except messes up the display of this menu

I can't get passed this menu.

I've tried booting from a DVD - both a Windows 7 installation disk, and the Dell recovery DVD I created when I first got the laptop, neither DVD boots, and apart from buzzing the DVD drive, don't have any effect at all. 

Both disks have been tested in another Inspiron laptop I have, and I also set the boot priority order in the bios so that DVD is the first item in the list.

I've also tried a bootable USB stick, but no joy there either.  The light on the stick shows it's being accessed, but I still end up at the Boot Menu above.

HP Dv7-3021ea OS/Software :: BIOS Update Failure - Two Blinks From LEDs When Powered On

Nov 9, 2011

I have a dv7-3021ea that will not switch on after an hp update for the BIOS applied and failed.
 
When powered on, there is the two blinks from LEDs indicating BIOS corruption.
 
I have tried the WIN-B BIOS recovery but the laptop has a quick think, then powers off and reboots to two blinks so I assume the HP_TOOLS partition is not working.
 
I have downloaded the BIOS updates from hp support, both f.13 and f.12 versions but when I attempt to run these on another computer (to try and create a BIOS USB stick), I get the error "InsydeFlash can not load the driver. Please close all applications. If you are running this utility in Windows 7, please run as an administrator". I have closed all apps, am using Win7 and have run as admin, is this because the computer I am running on is not a dv7-3021ea? If so, how do I proceed to create the USB recovery media?

Lenovo T530 T400 / T500 :: Boot Failure After Thinkpad BIOS Update 2.59.1.12?

Mar 26, 2014

After the latest system update from Lenovo System update, my laptop T530 doesn't do a successful cold boot. A warm successive boot (with interruptible boot screen) works fine.
 
But cold boot always fails and the system powers down in less than 5s. This is seen after the BIOS updated to 2.59.1.12. restore to older version of BIOS(downgrade it)?

HP Pavilion DV6-2117ev Recovery :: BIOS Failure - Not Able To Restore

Nov 10, 2014

My friend's comuter's BIOS seems to be dead. When I turn it on the CapsLock light blinks for 2 times and nothing happens on my screen. I tried to remove battery and power cable for some minutes, but nothing changed. I also removed the CMOS battery and replaced it's RAM, but still got the same problem.

I've searched for solutions on everywhere, and most of the times I finally get stuck on this page. The combination of WIN+B seems to have no effect, something that makes sense as I'm almost sure they've deleted the HP_TOOLS partition.

In the page mentioned above, it's said that "a USB key with an HP_TOOLS volume can be used as an alternative". I really have searched everywhere, but I can't find how to create this USB drive. Where to find an extracted version of BIOS so I could restore from that. The only BIOS That I get from the driver's page is one ".exe" which I have to run it on that computer, which is impossible. 

One last thing to mention is that I've downloaded the "sp61632" which gives me the "HP UEFI Support Environment Setup". When I try to install it on "USB Flash Drive" it gives me an error, but finally I've installed it locally on my computer, and then transfered its files on a USB Drive. 

I renamed that drive to "HP_TOOLS", and the only folders in there are "Hewlett-Packard" > "SystemDiags", and in there can be found 8 items: 

CryptRSA.efi
CryptRSA32.efi
SystemDiags.efi
SystemDiags32.efi
SystemDiags.s09
SystemDiags.sig
SystemDiags32.s09
SystemDiags32.sig

Just mentioning it, cause the total size is 2.5MB, and I can't see if thishas to do anything with the BIOS restore. So, to sum up, I need:

BIOS recovery files
a way to create USB drive with HP_TOOLS

Tried, but didn't work:

restart
remove HDD
remove CMOS battery
replace RAMs
WIN+B combination
WIN+B combination, with the flash drive mentioned above connected

The computer is: HP Pavilion DV6-2117ev

Product number: WB331EA#B1A

Operating system: Probably Windows 7 (I don't think this has any importance right now)

HP Pavilion Dv6700 Lockups :: Laptop Won't Boot Without Battery Attached

Sep 22, 2011

I have a Hp pavilion dv6700 series (dv6840el) and it just won't boot without the battery attached.
 
If i plug the AC adapter, i get some computer activity (fan, dvd drive noise and HD drive spins) for about 5 seconds and then shuts down.
 
Once i plug the battery (which is dying, needing a replacement), the laptop boots fine.
 
So, my question is: is this a motherboard or an AC adapter issue?
 
The AC adapter seems ok, though. But if i'm considering to buy a spare battery, i must make sure that i don't need a new AC adapter as well.

HP Pavilion Dv6 1050us :: Charging Battery Is Not Showing As Plugged In After The Bios Update

Sep 28, 2014

I have a Pavilion dv6-1050us and prior to updating the bios as recommended by HP my charger would show both in the taskbar as the battery was charging and it was plugged in as well as on the led on the front left of the notebook.  Since the update of the bios the charging icon in the taskbar no longer shows and the led light that shows the battery is charging no longer lights up.  I know there is power going to the battery because the battery shows 100% remaining and will only discharge after I unplug the power supply.  Is there a way to restore the bios to the previous verion even though the bios was flashed by the program HP uses? My antivirus program will not do it's weekly scan when the system thinks it's running on battery power.  I must manually start the scan myself.

HP Pavilion Dv6700 OS/Software :: NVIDIA NForce Network Controller Driver Not Working

I can't seem to get the ethernet port working on a dv6700 I'm refurbishing. I've installed the drivers from the HP support website, as well as installing the chipset drivers. The device status gives me an error code 39 and says that the driver is either missing or corrupted. The thing is, I can't uninstall the driver or even disable it. I haven't tried booting into linux to see if it works in there though...

HP Pavilion Dv6-6154tx OS/Software :: Unable To Find Laptop Model In BIOS Update Page

Nov 13, 2014

I have a HP Pavilion dv6-6154tx laptop. My current version of BIOS installed is Hewlett-Packard F.1B, 05/10/11.I wanted to check if my BIOS is up to date, and if there was a newer version of BIOS available.
 
So I went to the HP Support page for laptops (URL...) and chose Pavilion Notebooks > Models dv4000 to dv6999 > dv6000 Entertainment Notebook PC series > Matching products outside the United States.
 
But alas, I could not find my laptop's model listed there. There's dv6150tx and then it jumps to dv6161ea, but no dv6154tx. Is there any other way I can update my laptop's BIOS?
