Tried a few different versions found on this site and elsewhere with little luck so far. Don't have original bios bin at all.

in that case we dont know the BID but now the solution is i have extracted 4 new bios from HP SUPPORT SITE so you may try 1 by 1 and hope 1 of this will fix your bios issue

Thanks , will do,
Just wanted to add a few details :
This is a 17” laptop with intel i5 and ATI Radeon chip
Board model is DA0R13MB6E0 REV. E
R13

Do I need to worry about cleaning the ME region in those files ?

Also, this archive only has the Main bios.bin files but not EC ones for the second chip. I believe I need to re-program both each time.

No need to do anything it is a factory made bios just flash it
after flashing maybe you required to fill dmi info when its turn on and display come

Question: curious as to how you extracted those bin files from the hp factory package?
I might have to go to an earlier bios version.
Thanks ahead.
