    Hp 430 g3 probook

    Hi guys,
    I have been trying to create a bios recovery usb for this machine.
    However i am either getting no option to create the usb or getting a message telling me the bios is corrupted.
    Can anyone help.?

      Hi there again.
      thnx for replying.
      Now I managed to create recovery disk for this process but when win+B then power whilst holding the keys only the fan and lights come on..
      I made a bootable freedos usb and booted into that with the bios file.
      But what command do i need..Pls check this photo and tell me what I need to do.
      Someone put pw on bios now I need to reset.

        I get bad command or filename when I try to run the .bin file.
        New to this so some help would be great.
        I assume I am in the right directory.?
        I tried with and without quotes.
        Same error.
        Sorry for the vague first post lol..

                You can`t do it that way. Try the HP PC HARDWARE DIAGNOSTICS 4-IN-1 USB KEY instead.

                https://www8.hp.com/uk/en/campaigns/.../pc-diags.html

                http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp1040...0/sp104235.exe

                If that doesn`t work you`ll need an SPI bios programmer to backup your bios, then post it here and one of the members will try and fix it,or give you a working bios.

                  Ok smdflea,
                  I did buy a programmer,just wanted to be sure to try all other methods before disassembly.
                  Ill try this..thnx
                  Do I need to create a boot disk with this method?

                    You will need to make a USB key,just read the README file and click on the makekey.bat ,it will make the key for you .

                      I tried it..All this does is diagnose the hardware etc ?
                      I didnt see any reference to the bios. Is that right?

                        Bricked HP Probook 450 G7 Bios questions
                        by studdy05
                        Hp Probook 450 G7 s# SCD0348W35 had a locked BIOS. Bought BIOS and EC chips off Ebay that were supposed to match this machine - the 450 G7. Flashed in the BIOS on chip i bought using a CH341. BIOS unlocked next boot. Some error to contact HP. Entered BIOS and reset to system defaults and rebooted. Machine worked fine but every cold boot the contact HP message popped and everything else worked as fine. Assumed the error was from EC chip not matching BIOS that i just flashed in. So i flashed in the EC that was supposed to match from the EBay chip i bought and instant brick.

                        🛠️ MSI GP75 Leopard MS-17E71 – No Display, Deep BIOS/EC Troubleshooting
                        by macabook
                        Hello everyone,

                        I’m currently working on a dead MSI GP75 Leopard (MS-17E71) motherboard (i7 CPU, NVIDIA GPU) with a no display/no backlight issue initially. After extensive investigation, I’m at a critical stage involving EC firmware, BIOS/ME region interaction, and possible deep corruption. I'm seeking advanced insight from anyone with experience in EC/BIOS sync issues or PCH-level behavior. Here’s a full breakdown:
                        🧩 Initial Issue
                        • Board powers on (fans spin, keyboard lights up and can be adjusted, caps lock led lights), but no display or backlight
                        • External display (HDMI) shows
                        ...

                        Dell T7820 stuck in Bios Recovery Mode
                        by The_Memory_Guy
                        HI,

                        I have a Dell T7820 stuck in Bios recovery mode. I never get Dell Boot screen or anything visible on screen. The system just gives me 3 white lights and 3 orange lights indicating Bios recovery mode.

                        What I have tried to get to recover the Bios, there seems to be some conflicting advice about recovering the system.

                        All of them say to download the latest bios from the dell website which is a .exe file. I have done that

                        https://www.dell.com/support/product...BUT090/drivers

                        Lenovo IdeaPad 330 15-AST 81D6 BIOS Recovery
                        by jendkkd jeje
                        So a couple of years ago i got a bios update through Lenovo Vantage, so i installed it and bricked my whole BIOS, so i couldn't fix it so i put that ideapad in a box, 3 years later i found that one PC and want to recover it to switch from a 2014 hp laptop to this one.

                        I found a method to recover the BIOS of many lenovo laptops tha consists in pluging in a USB Flash with the BIOS files and power on the laptop with Fn + R keys pressed until fans go loud and start beeping loud, but nothing worked, so i think filename is wrong, i tried naming the bios file as 07WW.BIN, BIOS.BIN, BIOS.fd,...

                        Need (unlocked) bios for HP Probook 450 G3 Notebook
                        by the_raz
                        I'm requesting a bios .bin for 2 of my hp Probook 450 G3's. Both of which I had forgotten the bios passwords. I stupidly flashed both of them with firmware "made" by the RCUnlocker software and I guess I shouldn't have. The last thing I did was flash both of them with RCUnlocker-fw thinking it would 100% work and left my programmer etc behind and won't have access to them for another 2 days so I figured I'd create a thread to see if I'd be so lucky that someone might have a working file laying around 😝
