Hi friend,
look here :

http://donovan6000.blogspot.it/2013/06/i...overy.html

Normaly HP gives to user this Utility : HP BIOS Update UEFI
I cannot find for your Laptop, We can use this one to prepare an External USB Stick and try Recoery Procedure.

So for your laptop there is (but it's a bit different) :

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softw...96&sw_lang=

You can try this (not for your laptop, but It will work same) :

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softw...26&sw_lang=

These are Recovery Bios Files for Bios v.F.01 version (so You can rollback) just prepare yur USB Stick using HP BIOS Update UEFI
then rename USB as HP_TOOLS and copy files present into reovery folder into USB root and use Recovery Procedure :

https://www.sendspace.com/file/cr7th0

Recovery Procedure :

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/docum...ct=5277396

Let me know

Thank you Sir, what I understand is this:

1. Download http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softw...96&sw_lang= and run in Windows to install the UEFI environment to a USB stick called HP_TOOLS.

2. Download http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softw...26&sw_lang= to prepare USB stick for BIOS update

3. Download F.01 firmware from https://www.sendspace.com/file/cr7th0 and copy files to the USB stick to rollback firmware.

4. Use BIOS recovery procedure at http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/docum...ct=5277396 to rollback current F.08 BIOS to F.01 on the USB stick.

Is this right?

May I ask, why rollback to F0.1 when there is F.04 BIOS available?

Thank you Sir.

Ok friend,
I can say that :

1. this tool will write, rebuilding into your laptop, HP_TOOLS hidden partition (not on USB) (It's your model own tool)

2. this tool will write, on USB or on internal HD, the HP_TOOLS hidden partition (It's not your model own tool)

3. These files I prepared to rollback at v.F.01 as older one (more chances to work) then You can use normal update to upgrade

4. Recovery Procedure Generic for all HP Laptop

Now It's right Wink !!!

Let me know

Thank you for the explanation, why do I need to install the partition on both the hard disk and the USB flash?

And the USB stick with HP_TOOLS in step 3, this is not for my model so will it cause any problems or brick?

Ok friend,
use the first one : http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softw...96&sw_lang=

I tried It and It's the same like 2nd, but It's more updated so better.

Run It and choice the USB Flash Drive, then create It on your USB Stick and rename USB Drive
as HP_TOOLS, copy Recovery Files into root and try !

Regards

P.S. You don't risk a Brick as or It work or don't work.

Ok friend,
I said You can use (CAN not have) the 1st or 2nd to prepare USB Stick (then rename USB as HP_TOOLS) !
I suggest to use the 2nd as It's a generic tool to make a USB UEFI Boot tool and to use the 1st only if You could delete the internal HD Parttition HP_TOOLS !
When You have got your USB Stick then proceed to copy files into (these have to be placed into root).
Let me know
Regards

P.S. You don't risk a Brick as or It work or don't work.

I understand now Sir, thank you for explaining Smile

I will use the USB method this weekend and let you know. Many thanks again, appreciate your kind help and will let post back here after trying.

Hi,

I installed http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softw...96&sw_lang= onto a USB stick which installed HP UEFI and also named the USB stick as HP_TOOLS.

I then copied the two files 0338D.bin and 0388D.SIG to the root. Then I used the instructions at http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/docum...ct=5277396 to try and restore but it doesn't seem to work.

I switch off the laptop and connect using the power only. I put the USB stick in and switch on the laptop while holding down the Windows key and B. The laptop switches on and the power light shows but all I get is a blank screen. There is no BIOS recovery screen or anything.

The light on the USB stick is lit but there is no beeps from the laptop. Some other lights such as wifi and caps lock also light but the screen is still blank. I waited a few mins but still nothing.

I also try again and holding Windows key and B a little longer for a few seconds as HP recommends but still nothing. if I remove the USB stick, the laptop boots normally.

Any advice Sir?

Hi friend,
can You look into internal laptop HD for HP_TOOLS partition and look for .bin file !
May be It's a hidden partition, so You have to llok for your partitions on HD.
Let me know which file there is and upload here, please.
