![]() Wonder how serious that is if I don't update BIOS? ![]() I was hoping BIOS update might address a hardware related issue around this.but the notes only suggest improving a heat situation. When this happens, the onscreen keyboard shows up but does not work either. It seems to be an issue more if I play with the tablet mode-forcing those hardware items to shut off, then they don't always come back on when back in laptop mode. So far, my only remedy is full OS restart. ![]() The one issue I'm having is that occasionally the keyboard, touchpad, and touchscreen stop working.except in the menus! That's right, they still work in Ubuntu's top and side menus, but not anywhere else. QUESTION I HAVE.is IF I were to re-install Windows, would I be able to update my BIOS? Or is there a UEFI partition that is gone forever that was required? Just like the OP here, I created the BIOS USB drive using the HP program, but this laptop's UEFI menu does not have those other options to do the BIOS update without Windows. Then I tried out Ubuntu 18 using a USB stick long enough to fall in love (I've been using 16 and 14 before that for years). I fired up Windows enough to do a minimal setup then used the Windows Media Creation Tool to create a Windows 10 install USB stick should I ever want to put Windows back on. I just purchased an HP Spectre x360 15-ch011dx. I'm trying to update my BIOS in order to allow charging from the USB C ports with a non HP charger which I've read is something HP issued an update for. I've also tried holding down Windows + B and pressing the power button with the flash drive in which someone else on the forums suggested I should try.Ĭan anyone help me with this? It's frustrating that there's not simply an "Update BIOS" menu in the BIOS settings as there usually is. There is no "Firmware Management" or "BIOS Management" which the instructions say there should be. I do this, but I only have 4 options here "Memory Test", "Hard Drive Check", "Language" and "Exit". The info here says to press F2 to enter the "Hardware Diagnostics UEFI Menu". So I've tried following a different route, using the instructions here on how to update the BIOS when Windows doesn't start. I've tried two different flash drives, just to be sure. Try disconnecting any drives that don't contain an operating system. However, I'm not able to boot from this drive. I attempt to do so by pressing ESC during startup, then boot device options (F9), and select my flash drive from the list but I get a message which says: On a Windows machine I've downloaded the BIOS update from the HP support site for my machine, and I've used this tool to create a USB flash drive. This all seems to have gone correclty and I have the update files in /Hewlett-Packard/BIOS/New on the drive as expected. I'm not running Windows and it's proving a bit tricky. I'm trying to update the BIOS on my HP Spectre x360 - 13-ac004na.
