Re: help hp probook 6565b

have you made backup of the original Bios?
what is the model of the Bios chip?
How much is the size of the new Bios file which you programmed on the chip?

Re: help hp probook 6565b

it is winbond chip , it was detected fine by the programmer and all went good and verified , does amd probook needs dump file or it can be flashed right away using the official bin file ?? as far as i know you can flash amd bios right away ? can someone confirm or correct me ?

Re: help hp probook 6565b

I suggest you find a dump file on badcaps.net and write it on the Bios chip.

The file on the HP website is just the update not the full files. If you wrote it to the BIOS chip before backing up the original then you must find a dump and write that.

Re: help hp probook 6565b

This is HP official bios. If it doesnt work then not a bios issue. You can try another bios chip of 2mb size.Might be graphics issue as this series is known to have ati graphics failure.

Re: help hp probook 6565b

i need the dump file to use it with my programmer not the official one . i already tried the official one it doesn't work .. not a graphic issue . it has AMD A6 processor which it is APU ( cpu + gpu ) combined together into the processor , the laptop will not turn on at all no power the only light on it is the charger light , no respond to power button and this happened after i flashed the bios . thank you

You are talking funny. The hp official is a full bios. What difference will you get with a dump?? If hp offical bios(which is full) doesnt work-its not a bios issue. Whichever dump you may try, it wont work. You are simply wasting time with flashing. Look for schematic and troubleshoot the signals rather.
