I have no idea what you mean. I read the stickys and they don't help. I tried the file you posted, it extracted and started to run. It looked just like when I updated with the HP file, then it rebooted and went to the updating screen, counted down and then said System Bios update failed, rebooted again and I still have the one I had. I tried it three times.
Remove hptools partition before flashing. It's said in the sticky threads.

I don't have any such partition. Do you mean the Recovery Partition?
Hmmm, don't know if your "Recovery" partition is your hptools partition or the D2D recovery partition. Or if it is both at the same time. So is up to you if you decide to remove it to try the mod.
Personally i would not do it and would give up in modding the bios, i always say this about RSA signed ones. That's why in the stickys you read it, and i ask to explicit tell, that you know & accept the risks, in the request.
If you have the option on boot time to "reformat and reinstall" your windows SO with a click and no DVDroms then it can be D2D partition.
Your choice now

I don't know what D2D means but I did discover the HP_TOOLS partition by right clicking on Computer, then on Manage, and then Disk Management. It's a small 99mb FAT partition. I'm running Win 7 Home Edition 64 bit so I guess things are a little different.
I have however decided to leave things as they are after reading in other threads how people have had problems with HP laptops trying to mod the BIOS. I have no desire to have to open the thing up and play with the battery (which I don't even know how to get to). I thank you for trying and I'm sorry if I wasted your time.
