The latest BIOS for this computer is version 1.27, the flash file is 7G1_0127.bin contained within SP73584.exe.  The folks at HP are not kind or smart enough to provide the .bin file for direct download.  You will have to download the Windows executable and run it under WINE.  It will extract successfully using WINE and create a folder in: ~/.wine/drive_c/swsetup under the default configuraiton.  Look in the SP73584/DOS Flash subfolders to obtain 7G1_0127.bin, copy to a FAT32 formatted flash drive and use the BIOS update utility within the BIOS to read the bin file.== Troubleshooting =====Unable to boot from USB Flash Media===This is a known issue with this model, and there is a confirmed fix.  Advise available doing an online search yields no favorable results, you can only find the correct solution here!* Update BIOS to latest version 1.2.7, this is discussed in a previous section of this page.* The BIOS menu layout is moronic.
