BIOS for windows 7 ASUS P5BW-LA BASSWOOD HP Compaq 775 MotherBoard

I am building a new computer with a (HP/Compaq name: Basswood-UL8E ) P5BW-LA (Basswood) motherboard , CPU/Processor Socket: 775, chipset Intel P965 with an Intel Core 2 Duo E6x00 with Dual Core technology (Conroe) installed on motherboard. I am new to this and need help in finding the latest BIOS for a 32 bit system running windows 7 Ultimate. (Hopefully) I have no idea where to start.
I have the motherboard and put the conroe intel chip in as well as the heatsink fan also a 600 watt power supply and 8 GB kingston 240 pin DDR DIMM x4 @ 2 Gb each. As specified on the data sheet for the motherboard.
How do I find the right BIOS for the above as well as how to install all from scratch.
Any help would be highly appreciated
Regards (NOOBIE) to any helpers.
P.S What is: Two additional PCI when using an optional PCI extender card. and what do I ask for to get a PCI to a PCI x16 into the extention socket.

BIOS is cross platform firmware. The downside of using the mobo is that there is no newer BIOS than the original one under Windows XP. That motherboard was installed in the HP Pavilion d4600y and is a good source for reference information.
Download the chipset software for Windows 7 32-bit from Intel. That will be your only option as there is no Windows 7 support for the P5BW-LA BASSWOOD motherboard at HP.
Use the chipset identification software from Intel Your motherboard has the Intel P965 chipset. The disk controller chip(?) and the audio chip (Realtek ALC885). The southbridge chip is the Intel ICH8DH. The LAN solution is the Intel 82562V chip.

Dv6-2018ax Original BIOS for Windows Vista 32bit

I have tried for hours to find the original BIOS for the DV6-2018AX (windows vista 32bit) with no luck. I know there is no BIOS update... I am not interested in that, just the bios it came out of the factory with. If anyone could help me I would be much appreciated. This is for a USB flash... As I cannot recover the BIOS by normal means. Thanks.
This question was solved.

Satellite A200-1DN - How to update BIOS for Windows 7

I'm running 32bit Windows 7 on a Satellite A200 1DN. I've been having battery problems (plugged in, not charging) and I understand I need to update my BIOS. However I can't find a BIOS update for Windows 7, only Vista and XP.
Can anyone help? Should I update with the Vista BIOS? Are there any other options for solving this battery problem? I've already tried an ATX reset, and uninstalling the Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery.
Any advice would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Ian

Theoretically, you can install Windows Vista to update Bios and return Win 7, then. Before doing, try this:
Unplug the computer from the AC adapter and turn it on. Let the computer run under battery power until the computer turns off
Remove the battery pack. Using a soft cloth, wipe off the battery packs connectors and the AC adapters connectors.
Re-insert the battery pack and plug the computer into the AC adapter
> I've already tried an ATX reset, and uninstalling the Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery.
by the way, did you have the same issue before installing Win 7?

Updating G50-80 BIOS for Windows 10 64-bit

I have recently bought a G50-80 80E501LRIN model and I upgraded my OS from Windows 8.1 64-bit to Windows 10 64-bit. I want to update my BIOS to the latest version and have struck upon this link: http://support.lenovo.com/in/hi/products/laptops-and-netbooks/lenovo-g-series-laptops/g50-80/downloads/DS102231 . Support for Windows 10 64-bit isn't mentioned anywhere on the page. But I've also noticed that softwares for Windows 8.1 64-bit work flawlessly in Windows 10 64-bit. Should I update my BIOS with this one or wait for a Windows 10 one specifically?

Disregard. I found that if you go into the BIOS, disable Wireless, boot up, shut down, boot into Bios, re-enable Wireless and boot back up, it solved the bluetooth issue.

Satelitte A110-180 - Update Bios for Windows 7 and Linux

Hello,
I want to change the following settings in my bios on my laptop Satelitte A110-180
* AHCI for SATA
* Disable IDE
But there are no such options.
So I thought maybe I have to update my bios.
I found the download page, but there are 2 options: Windows Vista or NOT Windows vista, but I want to dual boot windows 7 and linux.
Wich one I have to download, or is there an other option to change the settings?
Thank you!
Bart

Hi
Satellite A110 does not support such options (SATA AHCI).
The BIOS update will not help you!
Linux is not supported and therefore you will not find any special BIOS for Linux OS!
The both BIOS updates are for Win Vista or OS independent.
Therefore if you are using OS other as Vista then you should take the OS independent BIOS update!
But like mentioned above; both options will not appear after BIOS update!

Downgraded windows 8 need bios for windows 7

i have the hp envy h8-1569 pc, came ithe windows 8. i had to downgrade it to windows 7 pro x64. all is working well, but i am wondering do i downgrade the bios to win 7 or leave it alone?

Hi,
As this is a consumer class PC, I don't believe that HP will release any bios update for Windows 7 - if everything is working well, then there's no need anyway.

Which BIOS for Windows 7?

Hi.In the moment I am with windows Vista x32 bios. I would like to know wich one Bios shall I use for windows 7? Thanks in advance.
And I am sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi
I think this is depending on your notebook Which one you have exactly?
On the Toshiba website I can different versions for the notebook, like one for 32bit OS and other one for 64bit OS. So I think thats the only difference because I dont see a special BIOS only for Windows 7.
If you have installed the latest BIOS version, everything is ok! :)

Re: Satellite X200-22E - Can I use Vista 64bit BIOS for Windows 7?

Hello!
Can I use the Vista-64 bit BIOS-Update 2.50 for my Satellite X200-22E? I just installed Windows 7 HOME PREMIUM 64 bit and it works fine.
Before this I had XP-32 bit running.
Thank you in advance!
Tom

I have a X200-20S and am running Windows 7 64bit with BIOS Ver 2.5 for 32bit Vista. If I try to install ver 2.5 for 64bit Vista I get an error message which tells me the ROM image is identical to the one already installed!!! I can only assume that the installer software can't distinguish beteen the 32 and 64bit versions? Not sure what the difference is but I haven't had any problems with Windows 7 so far apart from the subwoofer not working.

Hi all.
I have recently upgraded my operating system from Windows 7 pro to Windows 8 pro. I have alos changed the CPU to a pentium D, The power supply and the graphics card but I am having from with my SD ram and temperature displays.
I want to upgrade my bios if possible due to all the upgrades, when I looked in this site it doesn't mention windows 8 operating system with my PC? My system info is below.
Compaq Presario SR2129UK bios update for windows 8 pro 32bit.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi:
The only BIOS update for your model is for Windows Vista (v5.23).
There aren't any newer BIOS releases than that one.
You would need to be running Windows Vista in order to update the BIOS, or you would run a better than 99% chance of completely wrecking your PC.

Bios Update For Window 7 Ultimate

Hello everyone,
I have HP pavillion Dv6602 model laptop with AMD TURION processor which was taken in year 2008 with operating system windows vista. After window 7 came i replaced my window vista with window 7 ultimate. But after that the problem I am facing is that my laptop is getting overheated and its fan is making some very scary noise and after getting overheat , it gets shut down by itself with a sound and it will start after waiting for 5-10 mins after making it cool. I thought may be there would be requirement other drivers or softwares for Window 7 because even my webcam, quick launch buttons and my CD/DVD driver is not reading anything so i searched HP website but there after scanning my system for half an hour , it said no available software to update.
Then I checked my BIOS version , It is of F.30-24-04-2008 configured by Phoenix itself. Then i downloaded F.34 March-2011 configured phoenix BIOS set-up from HP website only . But now I am thinking shall I update my BIOS to F.34 or once it erased the previous flash , i will struggle to get my laptop in this position also . So please help me ?? I have the F.34 set up and also explain me how to use Phoenix Crisis recovery through USB(Pen drive) to recover the earlier BIOS in case of emergency.
For your proper reference i am attaching my Laptop info details also.
Thanks in advance

When the process is taking 94-96%, it's not bad, it's actually good because it means that the system is not taking much resources. However, when the process is taking those values and the CPU is burning, something is wrong. The CPU should be cool. I use linux so I didn't bother to find more information about this issue except the streaming one which works for me..

Is factory reset for Windows 7 gonna restore my BIOS too to its original state when I bought it?

I am using Windows 8 now, I bought my laptop in JULY 2012. It came with Windows Home Premium and I have the recovery disks for Windows 7. I plan to factory reset my laptop because of my disappointment with Windows 8 and supprt for Windows 8.
I want to know that if the 'Factory Reset' will restore the laptop BIOS to its original state. I mean I have my BIOS updated to the latest. I want it to go back to its old state. Also how long does the Factory Reset takes? I own HP DV6T 7000 Quad edition with 32gb mSSD.
Intel RST doesn't work no matter what, my HDD is shown in non-RAID and there is no way I can change it to RAID. So my last option is to try the Factory Reset and see if it helps. I am pretty sure IRST will work only if my BIOS is restored to the original state along with everything so it starts detecting my HDD in RAID.
This question was solved.

Hi,
A factory image recovery will not affect the BIOS version or its current settings. The amount of time that the factory image recovery takes wil depend on which type of recovery media you have. If you have usb recovery media than it will probably take perhaps thiry minutes. It you use a recovery disk set then the recovery could take a few hours to complete.
Once you start the recovery do not touch the keyboard.
Make sure that the wireless is turned on before you commit to the recovery.

erico

How do i get win 8.1. *pro* for mac parallels, deauthorizing win 8.1 pro and license rules for windows vms

ok, i've seen this question asked a number of times. i know the general procedure:
- first download some installer things to a window box so i can make a bootable DVD / flash drive
- go the mac and use the DVD / usb stick to install the virtual machine
great.. BUT :
1) unfortunately, i'm still really confused at the most basic part which is where (link) do i actually get the initial download thing to create the 8.1 *PRO* from microsoft and where (link) / how do i pay for the subscription key to install the thing????
i keep seeing a link for windows 8 or windows 8.1 where windows PRO is NEVER mentioned. i ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE a) PRO 64 bit and NOT vanilla windows and b) it MUST BE A FULL INSTALL (i'm not upgrading from windows 7, 8 or 8.1 NON pro.. i'm going
to be installing this thing on a brand new system.
i'm an IT guy for two decades and i can tell you trying to find, download, install a clean version of windows 8.1 PRO is a royal pita and nothing about windows 8.1 PRO is intuitive on the MS site. it's almost as if they do NOT want you to install the
thing. i'm not trying to bust jewels here, i'm just being honest and providing feedback that you folks need to make this much more clear and intuitive. people really shouldN'T have to post on forums to find out how to purchase, download and enter
in a subscription key for a base version of an OS. it's crazy.
2) once i can figure out how to download, install and register the darn thing ;)... i'm curious how the licensing works.
2a) first if my windows 8.1 pro experiment on mac parallels sucks, i want to be able to remove the authorization so i can reinstall 8.1 pro on another system.   can i / how do i do this in my scenario?
2b) i actually already bought windows pro 8.1 about a year ago (to upgrade a laptop that came with 8 that i needed to upgrade to vanilla 8.1 then to finally to pro) so that i could windows phone 8.1 development with simulator on the laptop. unfortunately
the laptop maxed out at 4G and the performance of the emulator was ridiculously slow that it's unusable. i'd love to somehow be able to put the laptop back to windows *vanilla* 8.1 and reclaim my 8.1 pro that i *already* purchased by removing the authorization
from that laptop allowing me to reinstall the full 8.1 pro with the same key on the mac with parallels. then i can sell the laptop that has sat there collecting dust for a year and regain my windows 8.1 pro investment vs having to buy another copy for
the mac.
i have no idea how to do this though i think it should be possible. can anybody tell me where / how i do this?
note the win pro 8.1 install never went well so i actually had some guy from MS login to my laptop remotely and do the install.. in doing so i believe he wiped away the original windows vanilla 8.1 recovery partition asus put on the drive meaning i'm not
sure i can get the laptop back to 8.1 or 8 vanilla so i can resell it functionally to another person while removing my 8.1 *pro* license from it.   any suggestions here highly welcome.
2c) once i get the windows 8.1 pro installed in a vm under parallels, i'll have one licensed copy running. my guess is that is what i'm limited to. but when you start working with VMs the whole purpose is to be able to create multiple test
enviornments and dispose of them when you don't need them etc.   since the window will be tied to the single mac hw id, will i be able to install multiple *win* vms (duping an exising win vm for instance) from the one license or must i purchase
multiple win licenses for each win vm on the SAME system?   if you need a new license for each vm, wouldn't i have to do a FULL WINDOWS INSTALL every time i wanted to create another windows VM.. THAT IS CRAZILY INEFFICIENT...
there has to be some kind of option to dup a windows licensed vm on the SAME system yes? what are the rules / procedures for making this work.
i'm using parallels on mac as an example but the same question would apply to using hyperV (which i know nothing about at this point) as the virtual host platform as well.
i'm open to well thought out links that actually answer these questions succinctly in addition to comments here
thanks in advance

Hello bigbobber,
If you have issue in using Windows 8.1 Pro in the software parallels in MAC?
About this issue, it is recommended to contact the related parallels support.
About the license issue, please read the following article about Buyer’s Guide and Microsoft software license agreement windows 8.1.
