How to update firmware for HP Compaq DC small form factor

I have HP Compaq dc7700 small form factor, Windows xp pro. It was bought on ebay and works fine except for one thing. The Bios was upgraded  but the firmware is not upgrading. the Bios was upgraded to V3.05 but the firmware remains 2.04
I downloaded al the updates and firmware and followed instructions but I seem to have problems updating the firmware. I would like to know how to do this step by step because the instructions I read seems to be missing some steps. my question is how to update the firmware. I did read the instructions but could not get it updated. either updating via windows or in dos, I can't seem to make it successful. There are two error messages,
1. ME BIOS Extension module has halted. Update BIOS or Management Engine firmware if problem persists.
2. Amt mamagement engine is disabled.

HP normally uses the term BIOS to refer to motherboard/CPU "firmware" updates and Firmware to refer to other device "firmware" updates... Below is a list of the two classes of firmware;
BIOS

  • No sound output on installing a hdmi support graphics card on HP Compaq dc5800 Small Form Factor

    when i inserted a HDMI support graphics card on g-force nvidia on my HP Compaq dc5800 Small Form Factor no audio output was availabe i need a support for this problem

    You will have to switch the sound Playback from Speakers to the Digital Audio output.
    Disconnect the speakers from the default output at the rear of your PC.  Sound will be output through the HDMI cable to the device it is connected to if the video device has HDMI sound capability.  If you have it connected to an HDTV it should not be an issue. All you will have to do is use the TV's menu to accept the computer input instead of cable.

    Hello Kappy,
    Thank you for responding so quickly. I went online to Apple to update my MacBook Pro 2007 (Mac OS X 10.4.11) I have Firefox 3.6.28 as my internet connection. I downloaded the firmware to my MacBook Pro. I opened the Firmware restoration CD download and the following files were there:
    IM51_0090_08B.fd
    IM61_0093_05B.fd
    LICENSE
    MB21_00A5_06B.fd

    MP21_007F_02B.fd
    README
    XS11_0080_00B.fd
    When I tried to open them to figure out which file I needed for the update. I received a message saying an application is needed to open the file(s). I do not know where to go from here. Do you have any idea how to proceed? I truly appreciate your support.

    Hi, I need help on how to update software for my ipad1, can someone help me?

    The iPad 1 can not be upgraded beyond 5.1.1. If you haven't upgraded to iOS 5.1.1, see the info below.
    If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

    Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

  • When will new update (firmware) for E72 will come?

    when will new update (firmware) for E72 will come?

    Firmware update for E72 has already been released..
    v22.007 has been around for many European models since around January
    v23.002 has been around for Asian/Middle-East models since this February.
    Some operator-branded phones may not have available updates yet though.
    You can use the Device Software Update page (search for the links in Nokia website) and enter your product code to find out if your product code has been included in the firmware updates already. 

  • What replacement power supply for m72e small form factor

    Simple question
    I have a bunch of lenovo m72e small form factor pc's.
    is the power supply a standard tfx or some sort of proprietary system.
    I was thinking of upgrading and also preparing for furture failure contingency.

    Many thanks for the update.  it is as i feared.  i hate the proprietary major components.... oh well, thank goodness for ebay.
    also, much less important as I figured out how to sysprep a machine to move windows recently.  Since our office FINALLY migrated to windows 7 x64; any future upgrades will be fairly easy on a modern OS.
    The m72e we purchased have 3 years support build in so it should be a while before I have to worry about servicing them.
    Having said all this, the Dell vostro 200 systems we have are 7 years old and trucking along with no service issues so far.  
    Lenovo machines were cheaper / on sale at the time and dell has since discontinued their vostro line so we tried the switch over on 1/2 our workstations @ the office.
    The speed of the system is fine but there are certainly some bios/hardware bugs that we have noted around the network card.  
    I doubt we will transition the rest of the systems to lenovo at this point.  Sure is easy to service when all your systems are from 1 vendor and the exact same lineage though.

  • No Audio from HP Compaq 6000 Pro Small Form Factor PC display port

    Hi
    I have a HP Compaq 6000 Pro Small Form Factor PC that has a display port. I bought a display port-HDMI adapter to use it on my LG plasma TV. The video is fine but i get no audio.
    Please what do i need to do? does my display port support audio? The symbol on it has the DP++ sign which indicates it should support audio.
    Please assist me.

    Hi:
    To the best of my knowledge, your PC does not support audio out of the display port.
    Check your sound and playback  menu in the contol panel, and see if you have 2 HD audio selection choices. If not, you won't be able to get sound out of the display port.

  • How to install firmware for the WRT54G

    I have downloaded the newest firmware for this router, but the file is a .bin. There is no .cue, .iso or other file associated with it. How do I open this file, or burn it?
    I tried creating a .cue file using a .txt text editor:
    FILE "WRT54Gv5v6_v1.02.2_fw.bin" BINARY
    TRACK 01 MODE1/2352
    INDEX 01 00:00:00,
    and renamed it WRT54Gv5v6_v1.02.2_fw.cue
    Roxio's Creator Classic will burn it to a CD, but when I try to load it by inserting the disk, the disk is blank - but shown as 100% used in raw format.
    Any suggestions? Why would Linksys provide this firmware in this truly complicated format?

    You point your browser at http://192.168.1.1/ This is the LAN IP address of the router inside your LAN. You can connect to this address when you are connected to the router. You don't need internet for that.
    The router came with a firmware preinstalled. Without the firmware the router is just a piece of junk. The configuration program on the CD only sends settings to the working and operating router, i.e. a router which is running its firmware. You can update the firmware by uploading a new firmware file to the router. But there was no firmware on the CD nor was it installed anywhere during initial setup. The router came with a firmware otherwise you could not use it.
    Just go to http://192.168.1.1/ and click on the Administration tab. The firmware upgrade function is somewhere on a subtab. You'll see a browse button with which you select the firmware file you downloaded before. Once you press the Upgrade button (please only do it if you really want to upgrade the firmware!) the browser sends the selected firmware file to the router where it will be installed after the router reboots itself.
    There is no point installing it from a CD as you only have to transfer the file to the router. Burning it to a CD only to load it from the CD does not make a different. As you have mentioned it does not make a difference where the firmware file is. Only as you have to download it anyway and then just transfer it to the router there is no point in burning it on a CD. You upload it to the router and that's it. Afterwards you delete the file because you don't need it anymore and you can download the latest firmware from linksys.
    When you write "DSL, cable and even VoIP modems" upgrading using any OS, did you ever do it? How exactly did you do it? Are you sure there is an updater for MacOS? Linux? Solaris? ... I think most modems will do it in a similar fashion using a browser upload.
    I don't understand what the problem is with this kind of firmware upgrade for you. It works very well and is often used. Many devices have browser interfaces nowadays and thus it is only natural you do the firmware upgrades the same way. The router can be upgraded using tftp as well. However, there are a few pitfalls with this method and often you'll need a command line prompt to run it. But these are the only possibilities to send the firmware file to the router and somehow you have to get it there.

  • Can't update firmware for Ipod Touch on my PC

    I have a 1st gen Ipod touch & windows xp. I have the latest itunes.
    It will not let me update the firmare, but I can sync fine.
    To update the firmware, I give it to my husband and he can do it from his computer. Then I can sync with no problems. It's just the updating firmware that causes the ipod to crash (1602 error, but occassionally other numbers).
    We thought it might have been that I didn't have USB 2 ports, so I bought a USB 2, 4 port card, and my husband helped me install it. Unfortunately this did not solve the problem and it still wont let me update. I thought perhaps because the usb 2 card came with driver disks, it might need a driver. But I checked the driver disk and it contained drivers for strange things I didn't have. Then I checked the internet and it said that with xp the drivers should be automatic with windows update, and mine is all updated, I checked.
    I've checked my devices manager list, and the list only contains one "enhanced" usb port, even though the card I have has 4 ports, but maybe I am not understanding how the devices list works.
    Just to clarify, have had the same problem with 2 ipod touches. My orignal one got a cracked screen (one crack so covered by warranty) and I received the replacement ipod touch yesterday, and I still could not update the firmware on my PC. My husband had to do it on his PC (vista).
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions. I really would like to be able to update the firmware on my own PC, it's geting extremely annoying.

    Because I cannot sync my music to my iPhone without updating on my PC which has all my iTunes. Where should I have posted my question to get the help I need?

  • How to reload firmware for MTP dev

    I upgrade my firmware to v2.0 and then my Micro froze and stayed in "recovery mode" no matter what i do. My Windows now recognize it as a "windows portable device" instead of under "USB". However
    Window MediaPlayer complain about the device not connected. Even worse looks like the firmware update .exe only works for '"USB device," I cant reload firmware to my Micro.BTW, as soon as I upgrade firmware initially and reboot, it says firmware problem and stayed in "recovery mode".
    Looks like every one who tries this firmware 2.0 ends up having a dead Micro. Think Creative should address this problem and either issue a patch online or voluntary repair all Micro for free whether they are under warranty or not.

    I have a similar problem with my Zen Touch. During a firmware upgrade to PlayForSure, Windows detected the Zen Touch as a new MTP Device. It then prompted me to install the necessary software for this device, I selected "install automatically" but Windows XP failed to do this.
    I am now stuck with my Zen having no functional firmware at all, and every time I connect it to the PC the "Found New Hardware Wizard" prompts me to install software for the new MTP Device. This fails every time.
    Running the update firmware exe file always tells me that my Zen is not connected to the computer. Even though it is.
    What can I do? How do I get the firmware updater to see my player?

  • Unable To Repair/Update Firmware for a Creative Nomad Jukebox

    Hello all,
    I've been trying for the past...3 or 4 hours to get my player to work, but it simply refuses to work =P. I sent the problem into Creative, but haven't gotten a response for a couple days now. So, here's a copy-paste of what I sent in that e-mail. If you can think of anything that might help, please don't hesitate to post! I really need your help on this one!
    My player's hard dri've recently died, and I received
    a replacement from the original store (a CompUSA).
    However, my Firmware for the device has failed. I
    tried the firmware upgrade for my Zen, but after
    a certain number of tries, I gave up. Here is the
    list of steps that I followed.
    On Zen: Click "Reload OS", let it run, it says
    run the firmware upgrader now.
    On Computer: "You cannot install this firmware
    update with your player's current drivers using
    the SB394 connector. To update your player's
    firmware, this application will temporarily
    replace the current drivers and restore them after
    the installation is complete. Continue
    installation?", I click Yes. Then it says to
    disconnect, and re-connect. I do it.
    It shows my version (.2.0), and I'm upgrading/
    repairing it to .2.02. When I click "Upgrade", a
    warning message pops up and says:
    "Your player cannot start up properly. Please
    reboot your player and run this application again.
    I've done this at least 0 times, and nothing changes. My player is a Nomad Jukebox Zen, the one with a FireWire connection, and like I said,
    I've tried this at least 0 times with the same results. Is there a process to completely remove
    the firmware on the device, then reinstall it,
    or to roll it back or something? Any other ideas
    to fix this problem is needed as well.

    Bump.
