Asus Bios Update Security Verification Failed Find

Hi: What I would do if I were you is to change the setting on the HP Support Assistant to notify you when there are updates and let you choose what updates to install and when to install them. A BIOS update gone wrong can totally render your PC useless and irrepairable unless the entire motherboard is replaced. A BIOS update should be run under the most guarded situation. Unsually in Windows Safe Mode where a minimum of background processes are running. The most dangerous program you can have running during a BIOS update is your antivirus program as it may think a virus is attacking your BIOS and will attempt to stop it from installing. If the BIOS flash is interrupted, you can kiss your notebook good-bye. Lastly, never update the BIOS until you go to your notebook's support and driver page and read the release notes for the BIOS to see if it fixes a problem you are having with your notebook or provides an enhancement or update you would like (such as support for a faster processor you want to install).

Otherwise there is no need to ever flash your BIOS. This is definitely one situation where the old saying holds true: 'If it's not broke, don't fix it.' You're lucky the BIOS update only reported failed and not worse. I don't know why HP has the default setting on that program to download and install updates automatically. You are not the first person this has happened to, and others have had worse outcomes.

Hi Paul, Thanks, I know from experience of dodgy BIOS updates and their effect! What I don't know is how to facilitate this awful laptop (4 weeks old, 200+ crashes, 100% unreliability) to update the BIOS. The only reason I'm trying to update the BIOS is because the system simply will not function with the current one, I believe it's clashing somehow with the ATI Radeon 6490M video driver, but HP refuse to help me find a new driver for that, their support being as useful as a paper bag in a storm. I've completed their pointless 16349942-atikmpag.sys Survey and had no response.

I've mailed Support and had no response. Now I'm here begging for help from anyone who might have found a solution to what is clearly a known fault. I'd hoped the Support Assistant finding the new BIOS (2nd flash since purchase) would be a fix, and it might be, but not if it continues to fail to update. Can you think of a reason why the BIOS update would fail? (no anti-virus installed yet, BIOS fails to update in the BIOS at statup, long before any Windows activity) Thanks Dan. Hi, Dan: I don't know why it is failing. Are you sure you have (or are being delivered) the right version from your notebook's support and driver page?
