Repairing the BIOS IC
(Authorized Service Providers Only)
The notebook’s BIOS IC cannot be replaced separately. If it is defective, you must replace the
motherboard. In some cases, however, you might be able to reprogram a malfunctioning BIOS IC using
either e-DiagTools for Windows, a BIOS floppy disk, or a Crisis Recovery floppy disk.
If the notebook will boot sufficiently, use e-DiagTools for Windows or a BIOS floppy disk to
reprogram the BIOS IC. If you cannot boot the notebook adequately, use a Crisis Recovery floppy disk.
See below for instructions for all three methods.
Using e-DiagTools for Windows
Caution
The BIOS update completely replaces the previous BIOS, so follow these directions exactly or
you might damage the notebook. The BIOS update also resets the configurations in the BIOS
Setup utility—except for BIOS passwords—so record these before performing the update.
Update the notebook’s BIOS as follows:
1.
In Windows, exit any programs that are running.
2.
Undock the notebook if it is docked, and remove any PCMCIA cards from it.
3.
Connect the AC adapter to the notebook.
4.
Connect any cables or equipment needed to connect to the Internet.
5.
Click Start > Programs (or All Programs) > Hewlett-Packard > Notebook > HP e-DiagTools >
e-DiagTools for Windows.
6.
Click Update, select Download New and click OK. Follow the instructions that appear.
update process begins, do not interrupt it.
The first time you make an Internet connection from this program on a particular unit, click
Change Settings in the Connect window to define your connection settings.
7.
When the process completes, press the power button to reset the notebook.
BIOS updates are available from the HP Business Support Web site (www.hp.com/go/bizsupport).
Installation utilities and instructions for creating a BIOS floppy disk are provided with the updates.

Using a BIOS Floppy Disk
If you do not have a BIOS floppy disk, download the package from the Partnership Web site (see page
vi) under Product Support Information in the Service and Support Library. Follow the instructions for
creating the BIOS floppy disk.
Caution
Make sure to use the correct BIOS floppy disk for the notebook model you are repairing. The
program does not verify the notebook model, so you could accidentally install the wrong BIOS.
1.
Insert the BIOS floppy disk in the floppy disk drive.
2.
Turn on the notebook and allow it to boot from the BIOS floppy disk.
If the notebook does not turn on at all, do the following to boot from the BIOS floppy disk:
a. Unplug the AC adapter.
b. Press and hold Fn+B
c. Plug in the AC adapter.
d. Release Fn+B.
Note:
If the notebook will not boot from the BIOS floppy disk, try plugging the boot-block jumper
into the notebook’s parallel port. See the wiring diagram below.
3.
The display goes blank for a minute or more while the BIOS is reprogrammed.
Note:
4.
If you plugged in a boot block jumper, unplug it before the notebook automatically reboots.
After the BIOS reprograms itself, check the BIOS version to make sure it is the latest version.
If necessary, download the latest BIOS version and reprogram the BIOS IC.

Operating system and version.
•
Software version (stored in hidden file c:\version.inf).
•

Analyze the problem:
Observe Symptoms.
•
Using the customer’s information, try to duplicate the problem. Determine
how the problem differs from proper behavior. Also, note the functions that do work properly.
Separate Problems.
•
Consider Causes.
•
If there are multiple symptoms, separate them into distinct problems.
Keep in mind possible causes for each problem. Use the diagnostic tools and
troubleshooting suggestions to help find possible causes.
!
The e-Diagtools diagnostic program tests most of the notebook’s components using automatic
and interactive tests, and is your primary troubleshooting tool. Other tools include the poweron self-test, WMI/Toptools (if installed), the BIOS Setup utility, and the Sycard PCCtest.
Table 3-2 on page 3-5 shows how you can use these tools to isolate the cause of the
notebook’s problem.
!
The troubleshooting suggestions on page 3-6 include general suggestions for repairing
notebooks that show specific failure symptoms.
Service ManualTroubleshooting and Diagnostics3-3
Swapping modules that might be defective with others known to be good is generally an ideal way to
find the module responsible for the problem. A failure symptom is rarely caused by more than one
module, so you will not usually need to replace more than one to correct a particular failure.
After you replace a module, the notebook will normally be in a confused state and lock up when you
apply power. If this happens, press the reset button: this turns the notebook off, so that you can restart it
in a known state.
Verifying the Repair
Before returning the repaired notebook to the customer, verify the repair by running the following tests:

e-Diagtools Diagnostic Program
The hardware diagnostic programs provide two levels of testing:
•
User-level testing using a basic hardware test.
•
Advanced testing using individual hardware tests.
The tests are designed to run after the system reboots, so that the notebook will be in a predictable state
during the tests. The tests are non-destructive, and are intended to preserve the state of the notebook.
The notebook reboots when you exit the program so drivers can be loaded.
Updating e-Diagtools
You can download the latest version of e-Diagtools using e-Diagtools for Windows.
Running e-Diagtools
The following procedure describes how to run e-Diagtools. The individual steps might differ slightly
for different versions of e-Diagtools.

Power-On Self-Test
Note
If Quiet Boot is enabled in BIOS Setup (the default setting), press Esc during boot to see POST
messages.
When the notebook boots, its system BIOS runs a series of initialization routines and diagnostic tests
called POST (Power-On Self-Test). The BIOS will not boot the notebook’s operating system if the
system memory, CPU, DMA, or interrupt controller fails the POST diagnostic tests. POST indicates
progress by a sequence of codes; if an error occurs, the BIOS displays a message and/or issues a beep
code.
Note that not all POST messages indicate a failure in the notebook—some messages are for
information only. You should not necessarily interpret the failure of one or more POST tests as a
hardware, software, or firmware failure. If POST displays an error message or issues a beep code
indicating an error,
confirm the problem using other diagnostic tools.
3-18Troubleshooting and DiagnosticsService Manual
First, confirm the failure by performing a “clean” boot, as described below. Note that if the notebook
fails to restart with a clean boot, it requires repair.

Sycard PCCtest 450/460 PC Card (Optional)
The PCCtest 450 and 460 cards (version 1.05) from Sycard Technology are the only recommended
diagnostic tools that test the functionality of the PCMCIA slots using a PCMCIA card. Each is a
Type II PC card that works with test software to exercise PCMCIA functions. (For details, see the
Sycard Technology Web site: http://www.sycard.com).
The PCCtest product contains these components:
•
PCCtest 450 or 460 (revision 1.05) PC card.
•
PCCtest 450/460 software disk. (Software updates are available at the Sycard Technology Web
site.)
•
Configuration headers (PC card/16-bit and CardBus/32-bit) that attach to the card.
You will also need a CardBus extender card (such as the Sycard PCCextend 70) to avoid wear on the
Sycard PCMCIA connector.
Use the following tests to check the function of the notebook’s PCMCIA slots. See the Sycard
documentation for details about running the tests.

Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI)
The Windows Management Instrumentation is basically sets of rules for accessing information about a
notebook. WMI allows an application to determine, for example, the operating system being used,
which hardware and software components are in the notebook, and possibly whether any of the
components need replacing. A local or remote application can use the WMI interface to check which
hardware and software components are installed on your notebook, and might be able to tell how well
they are working or if they need replacement.
Installing the WMI Package
The WMI package is either preinstalled on the notebook’s hard disk or can be downloaded from
http://www.hp.com/toptools (the contents are the same in both cases). The package must be properly
installed before it can be used.
To install the WMI preloaded on the hard disk:
1.
Start Windows, if it is not already running.
2.
Click Start > Programs (or All Programs) > Hewlett-Packard > HP Toptools Agent > Setup.
Using WMI
For a complete description of how to use WMI, see the following documentation provided with the
notebook:
•
A README.TXT file: click Start > Programs > Hewlett-Packard > HP Toptools Agent >
Read me.
•
A Windows online help file describing Hewlett-Packard’s implementation of WMI (group and
attribute definitions): click Start > Programs Hewlett-Packard > HP Toptools Agent > HP Toptools
Help.
Uninstalling the WMI Package
1.
Click Start > Programs (or All Programs) > Hewlett-Packard > HP Toptools Agent > Uninstall
WMI.
2.
Restart the notebook.
BIOS Setup Utility
The BIOS Setup utility provides access to the notebook’s basic configuration settings. It is independent
of the operating system.
Running the BIOS Setup Utility
1.
Close all applications, then restart the notebook: click Start > Turn Off Computer > Restart. (If
necessary, you can press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart.)
2.
When the HP logo appears, press F2 to enter the BIOS Setup utility.
Service ManualTroubleshooting and Diagnostics3-25
3.
The pointing devices are not active in BIOS Setup, so you will need to use the keyboard to
navigate:
•
Press the LEFT and RIGHT arrow keys to move among menus.
•
Press the UP and DOWN arrow keys to move among parameters in a menu.
•
Press F5 or F6 to move through values for the current parameter, or press Enter to change a
setting.
4.
After you select the options you want, press F10 or use the Exit menu to exit BIOS Setup.
If the settings cause a conflict between devices during reboot, the system prompts you to run BIOS
Setup, and marks the conflicting settings.

The listings in the following table are for the initial BIOS release and might differ somewhat for
other models.

Reference Information
This chapter includes the following reference information:
•
Password removal policy.
•
Display quality statement.
Password Removal Policy
If the user forgets the system password, the user calls Technical Support to determine the proper
removal procedure. The user must provide proof of ownership, and the notebook must be operated
during the procedure.
The password removal procedure is protected as HP Company Private information. There are a
restricted number of locations that can perform password removal. It might not be disclosed or
distributed outside those locations.
5
Password removal is strictly controlled. Hewlett-Packard and authorized support providers must
ensure with written evidence that the notebook being “cleansed” is actually in the possession of the
notebook’s actual and current owner. This requires a sales receipt showing the notebook serial number
and owner’s name, or a written statement from the owner attesting that he or she is the owner of the
notebook. The statement can be a fax copy of the document. The fact that the notebook is in the hands
of an HP representative on behalf of the customer is not evidence of ownership. In addition, HP will
not remove the password of a notebook for any non-owner, even if it is requested by law enforcement
agencies. If you receive such a request, you should notify management and HP Corporate Legal
immediately. (These requests might require a court order prior to our participation.)
Further, the entity removing the password must log the name, serial number and date of the removal,
and file the written backup with the log. The log and backup are subject to standard record retention
process and review.
The final issue relating to removal of passwords is that HP cannot provide information to users that
would assist them in improperly removing a password and opening a notebook.

Hewlett-Packard Display Quality Statement
TFT display manufacturing is a highly precise but imperfect technology, and manufacturers cannot
produce large displays that are cosmetically perfect. Most, if not all, TFT displays exhibit some level
of cosmetic imperfection. These cosmetic imperfections might be visible to the customer under
varying display conditions, and can appear as bright, dim, or dark spots.
all vendors supplying TFT displays in their products and is not specific to the notebook display.
Notebook TFT displays meet or exceed all HP standards for cosmetic quality of TFT displays. HP
does not warrant that the displays will be free of cosmetic imperfections.
small number of cosmetic imperfections and still conform to HP’s cosmetic quality specifications.
Here are some guidelines for determining what action to take on customers’ complaints of cosmetic
imperfections in their TFT displays:
1.
View the notebook under the customer’s normal operating conditions.
This means that if the customer uses the unit predominately in DOS, in Windows, or in some
other application or combination of applications, you should make the determination under those
same applications. Self test is not a normal operating condition and is not a sufficient tool for
interpreting display quality.
2.
Use the table below to determine whether the display should be considered for replacement.
These are the only conditions in this guideline that might call for a replacement due to a defect in
material or workmanship based on the HP Limited Warranty Statement.
This issue is common across
TFT displays can have a
3.
If a display is considered for replacement, make sure the customer understands that cosmetic
variations might also exist on the replacement display, and might require the customer to use a
work-around to obscure the cosmetic imperfection.
4.
Customers with cosmetic-based complaints that do not conform to the above conditions and tests
will not normally be considered for display replacement. The HP-responsible person working with
the customer should identify work-arounds that are reasonable and appropriate for the individual
customer. Customers who must have a more perfect display solution should consider switching to
a notebook with a DSTN display.
We expect that over time the industry will continue to produce displays with fewer inherent cosmetic
imperfections, and we will adjust our HP guidelines as these improvements are implemented.
