IMPORTANT: Updating BIOS without suspending BitLocker may cause the loss of access to the encrypted data. BitLocker

command line “HPBIOSUPDREC –b”.
• The version of the firmware image in the update file and the firmware version of the current system are displayed. The
user is notified that the firmware will be overwritten.
• Show password field if Bios has set an administrator password.
• Upon completion, you see the message that the Firmware update preparation was successful. Select Restart.
