Need help in Insyde H2O BIOS mod to enable advanced tab

[DP111]

Hi, I got a new HP-630 notebook that has InsydeH2O Rev3.5 BIOS but has many tabs in the BIOS locked. I need to go to the advanced tab where I can change the HDD mode from SATA to IDE or AHCI, which ever works, to install Windows Server 2003.

The BIOS update link as per HP's download site is http://bit.ly/w3KYLO ( I have shortened it for your ease).

Please get this bios mod done for me so that I can access the advanced tab or whichever menu has the option to change the HDD mode from SATA to AHCI or IDE (compatibility).

Hi, Thanks a ton.. really appreciated

However, when I run it it gives me an error in a non-english language (algunos ficheros de instalacion estan crruptos. Por favor descargue una nueva copia e intente de nuevo la instalacion).

Is there a specific way to use it? Sorry if I am missing anything.

Regards,
DP

Sorry Camilo. I think I got the issue, it did not get download completely. The downloaded file shows as only 2.1MB while I think its 7.6MB. Will try to download and install again. Please ignore my previous post.

Thanks again.

Dear Ayoob
thank you for the previous explanation just my problem case is the following:
After a failure upgrading bios, i did the steps to recover it back following your instructions,but in every reboot, just blinking CAPS key, with the wireless key lighting steadily.
my case is different in the two things:
1- I noted that my laptop started immediately right I plug the AC power cable without pushing the on-off button

2-NO beeps heard whatever I pushed or did ,since the first boot after the upgrading ,the laptop (hp 630) stop beeping, and all kind of combinations and files I tried didn't make it reboot again

Any help I endlessly will be thankful
