Insyde bios update utility
I took the risk and tried it, even though I knew it would be a downgrade from the F.03 I was already running.
UPDATE: I tried downloading other versions of the BIOS and they all do the same thing - EXCEPT for the F.02 updater. What’s the trick to getting this laptop to update its BIOS? I have tried resetting the BIOS to its default settings, cleaning the hard drive, replacing the hard drive, clean-installing Windows 8.1, AND clean-installing Windows 10. I ran through that process but the USB drive isn’t bootable there’s just a couple of folders containing what are theoretically the BIOS update files. The updater utility (InsydeFlash.exe) also claims to have the ability to create a bootable USB drive to flash the BIOS of a corrupted machine. I get to the desktop, shut down, and start up again to get into the BIOS, and sure enough it’s still on F.03.

I click it and the computer restarts - way too quickly for a BIOS update to have been performed. Bios Insydeh20 Setup Utility Rev 5.0 Post by Madie1994 » Mon 4:27 pm hi re-installed my windows OS, all well except bios insydeh20 setup utility rev 5.0 dont seem to work - the only driver shown missing from the list - please help. It goes through a “copying” motion then tells me I need to restart, along with a restart button. I have the option of updating the BIOS so I do so.
About a minute after running the downloaded EXE, the utility runs. Running it puts a typical HP “SWSetup” folder on the drive with the appropriate bits inside. I downloaded the most current BIOS (F.42rA) available here: Laptop is currently running BIOS F.03 and Windows 8.1.
