Thank you

When I flash it with dos version of phlash16.exe (via usb floppy drive) I get error , it says Bios may be Corrupt (checksum not zero). Is it normal? Must I bypass that error?

[DeathBringer]

Is it normal?

No. I'll try to fix.

In the meanwhile I flashed it, now I get blank screen. Bios is bricked

Tomorrow I will try with a rescue disk

[DeathBringer]

You need to download original BIOS - http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp30001-30500/sp30397.exe
Open it in WinRAR to extract 08A0F35.exe and unpack it by WinRAR too.
Replace 08A0F35.wph by modded one and start FLASH.BAT in Windows XP

The computer now is bricked. Doesn't start. Fan, led, but blank screen

I created a phoenix crisis disk (floppy) and tried various key combination (FN + Esc, Win + B , FN + B) but floppy read for 2 seconds and stop

in the crisis disk I put 08A0F35.wph renamed bios.wph (it's in my first post here)

I press the combination and then press Power button
But nothing

[DeathBringer]

So you need a hardware programmer to recover.

[IrRaziel]

Yes unfortunately... I think I must buy a CH341A with correct optional (compatibile with this chip) and learn to use it :-(
Often this old systems are different from modern comptuer

I also tried with a usb key... nothing

The floppy drive (with the crisis disk in it) reads two times for a couple of seconds, then stops. I don't know If I make some mistake, I will try again later

Or perhaps this computer has a different combination because it's old, I will search on line. HP zv5000 series and HP nx9105 seems to have same motherboard, I will search about them also, if there is a bios recovery procedure
