hp 250 g7 corrupt bios

[Wassittelly]

Thank you for this information, I was able to fix my machine with no picture after BIOS update!

Finding the BID is easy, just search your dumped BIOS files for the string "BID".

Hello there, You are the BEST !! Very thank you all for your troubleshooting manuals and infos here. Today I repaired a 250 G7.

The Mainboard is EPW50 LA-G07FP Rev. 1.0
The BID I found in the dump file and used it with success: 08532
The chip is GigaDevice 25B127DSIG, but was not listed in Neo Programmer, so I connected it with 25Q127C.

I copied the DMI so I didn lost the model number, serial, key and so on, Offsets: 320000 - 32103F, found in another thread here by SMDFlea.

So thank you very well! This was the first time to flash an chip and it was success cause of this website!

No.You will need a programmer

Can I extract it without using the SPI programmer? S/N is CND0260KLS

Yes, No success. Always gave me NO PERMISSION/ ERROR CODE: 6,

Ok.Post your bios backup and the laptop serial number

Hi there, I got this laptop used and when it reboots it tries everytime to update the BIOS but it fails to write the bios and stucks at 1%.
To power off the machine, i need to open it and remove the battery.
I saw in the BIOS that the serial, model and windows serial info are missing. Maybe the previous owner messed with the BIOS for some reason, and now I don't have the DMI data.
Maybe if I can manually insert back the values, I can proceed to update, but how can I add the values? I tried with the HP BIOS Tool but with no luck. I do have an SPI Programmer (using Raspberry PI)

The BIOS may be wrong, im not first who flashed it. That means i dont have original file. But SN is from bottom cover.

Try # 51

The file you posted is for OMEN by HP - 17-w200nx and your serial number is also bogus.

Re: hp 250 g7 corrupt bios

sp100745 is a diagnostics app,that version does not include any bios. The recovery methods are listed in this HP document - https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c02693833
There is no bios update listed on the 250 G7 drivers support page but a full bios is is included on the latest HP PC HARDWARE DIAGNOSTICS 4-IN-1 USB KEY - http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp1035...0/sp103655.exe
Make another key from that and run it, if you still can`t recover the bios then extract the 4-in-one key with winrar or 7zip.Look in the folder called Field,then open the BIOSCopy.csv to find your bios name in the list.All the full bios are in the BIOS folder.Flash the bios with your tl866,then you`ll need to run hp BCU bios config utility from windows, nbdmifit from UEFI or use wndmifit from windows.
HP DMI Tool NBDmiFit - https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=69204

EDIT: The bios.bin isn`t in the BIOS folder even though its listed in the BIOSCopy.csv file. The bios is 084A8 ,check your bios backup to make sure its the right one. Strangely the bios is included with an earlier version of the 4-in-one key for other models but not listed in the .csv , thanks HP ! .

Bios 084A8.bin attached .
