HP PC Commercial BIOS (UEFI) Setup July 2020 919946-004 6.3 Update System BIOS Menu This submenu under the Main menu provides information about the current system firmware, settings, these control updates, the ability to check for updates over the internet or on the local network, and the ability to update system firmware from a FAT 32 partition on the hard drive, or a USB disk-on-key. For the BIOS flash to succeed, do not remove power or turn off the system during any phase of the process. The following description of the BIOS flash phases helps you avoid interrupting the process. The BIOS flash proceeds in four phases: 1. The system displays a progress bar. When progress is 100%, the system reboots. This is the initial BIOS flash. Because the system must reset power completely, there might be a delay of between 10 and 15 seconds before power returns to the system. 2. The screen may be black initially and an LED may be and blink. This will occur only if the boot block needs to be updated. On some models, video cannot be displayed during this phase, so the beep/blink code indicates that the system BIOS is flashing normally. Other models may display 'Step 2 of the BIOS update is in progress' during this phase. The computer will reboot again, and this might also take 10 to 15 seconds to complete. 3. The message "Final step of the BIOS update is in progress" is displayed. 4. The screen is black for a short period, and then the OS starts. The BIOS update is now complete.
