    HP Folio 1040 G1 corrupted bios - new bios flash, unable to update DMI

    Hello all,

    I'm facing a strange issue, I do have my old bios where i can find some information about the laptop SN, build and so on for the DMI encoding.

    I did flash a new bios on the laptop and i have tried all the tools found everywhere on this forum and other forums but i'm unable to update all DMI info in the BIOS. I still get an error saying "Warning: Machine is not in committed state".

    Could somebody guide me on this or maybe help? I'm really hoping to find a way out of this bios thing...

    See attached old bios (corrupted for some parts in it. I did replace the chip as it was bad) and new one.

    Thanks a lot!
