Warning Warning Warning: BIOS is key component of computer. Failure to flash/update it properly may brick laptop. Proceed at your own risk and only if you are familiar with BIOS update process. If you are not sure then use windows update tools from HP support site.

I have only Linux installed on my HP ProBook & EliteBook. I would like to update BIOS but I don't want to install MS Windows. HP web pages don't mention it directly but there are several ways how to update BIOS without using MS Windows operating system.

I will describe several ways how to update BIOS for both of my laptops:

  • HP ProBook 650 G2
  • HP EliteBook Revolve 810 G1

These procedures may work also on similar models from HP but there is no guarantee that it will work in future. HP may change update procedures so watch carefully output from commands.
