HP envy 13-ba0028nb

[Lucky350]

Hi all,

Problem description: Laptop has black screen when booting after HP's bios update, bios does not post, pretty sure the bios needs to be flashed again.


Could anyone help me out fixing this backup bios so I can flash it?
Whenever I try to flash the original backup it says the file is too big for the chip's capacity.

You can find the files in the attachments, including signature files if necessary.

I would greatly appreciate any help!

The thing is that there is no bios available on the HP website for this model.
I used the backup feature from the HP bios update tool before updating, these are the files I included in the attachments.

So I would think the original bios is in there.

Sorry if I am misunderstanding this. I would gladly donate to badcaps or buy a coffee (if allowed) for the time and help.

And where's that Original Backup? Because I can't see it in the attached files.

There`s no DMI info in your backups, which is odd. Anyway there are 2 bios you can try https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showpo...57&postcount=5

I don't really see where I can find the original backup. These files are the only files I can find, besides the ones in this attachment.


The root folders I see are;
Hewlett-Packard
HP

You are very welcome, and encouraged to do so.

No, it's not allowed, and it's explicitly said in the rules:

You MUST NOT:

• Ask for or accept payment of any kind whatsoever

You got those files from HP website or from where?

You need to take a BIOS Backup from your chip using a SPI Programmer and upload the file here, read this Post to learn more.

Thank you for all the help. I got these files from the HP bios update tool (backup option).
I'll try to do a backup using my SPI programmer, but I think the bios chip is empty though..

Just take a backup and post it here even if it's corrupted, also put some info about your device (Model Number, Serial Number, Motherboard Number and CPU) that will help to get the correct BIOS.

Thank you so much. I will try to retrieve all of that info when I find myself more time. Would've been easier with HWInfo if the laptop just worked, but else I wouldn't be here I guess hehe..

I also saw the announcement about the upkeep costs. Is it possible to get the total upkeep cost PM'd or posted, would be nice to see some progress bar or something to motivate donations even more.
