Updating Software

Updated versions of the software provided with your computer
may be available on the HP Web site.
Most software and BIOS updates on the HP Web site are
packaged in compressed files called SoftPaqs.
Some download packages contain a file named Readme.txt,
which contains information regarding installing and
troubleshooting the file.
To update the software:
1. Identify your computer model, product category, and series or
family. Prepare for a system BIOS update by identifying the
BIOS version currently installed on the computer.
If your computer is connected to a network, consult the
network administrator before installing any software updates,
especially system BIOS updates.
✎
The computer system BIOS is stored on the system ROM. The
BIOS initializes the operating system, determines how the
computer will interact with the hardware devices, and provides
for data transfer among hardware devices, including the time
and date.
2. Access the updates by visiting the HP Web site at
