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 3 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. Select Start > Programs (or All Programs) > Hewlett-Packard > Notebook > HP e-DiagTools >
e-DiagTools for Windows.
6. Select Update, > Download New > OK. Follow the instructions that appear. Once the update process
begins, do not interrupt it.
7. The first time you make an Internet connection from this program on a particular unit, select Change
Settings in the Connect window to define your connection settings.
8. When the process completes, press the power button to reset the notebook.
BIOS updates are available from the HP Business Support Web site
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 vii)
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: If you plugged in a boot block jumper, unplug it before the notebook automatically reboots.
4. 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.
