How do I upgrade my BIOS?

[hellas1]

Hi all,

I have an HP machine with an Phoenix AwardBios v 6.00 PG

Does anyone know even IF a BIOS upgrade/update is available or what?

BTW, How do I look up my motherboard specs?

Thanks and any help would be appreciated!

Need the HP model number to find info on the motherboard. It's unlikely a BIOS update can be found though. I had HP crap for my first computer and couldn't even locate the motherboard model anywhere on the internet. It was a Foxconn board designed solely for HP, hence the utter lack of support.

Why would you want to update your BIOS anyway? It's a lot of hassle.

Run CPU-Z to get your specs for your hardware. That will give you someplace to start.

Updating Bios could be very risky it could make your system very unstable resulting ur motherboard to be trashed .
Unless u are having problems with the old one you shouldn't flash it with a new one.
And like the above poster said use cpu-z to find out ur specs then post the model of motherboard and maybe we will help find u the bios upgrade.
