Yes I tried that, FN+ESC, FN+F and all other combinations found on net. Tried different flash drives, fat16 and fa32, even tried SD card - always the same.
I've placed your files on flash drive now, but same result. However, there's notable difference - in case when there are .bin files, it takes much more time to access flash drive, pen drive led is on for longer time, and blinks rapidly. So I think, the .BIN files are one that should be flashed, but somehow, bios does not "recognizes" them as own flash files. With your files, it only took couple of flashes of pen drive led.
I called HP support today, and they've said that such behavour (I told them that problem happened after flashing legit bios) indicates serious problem and laptop should be sent for repair to area, where it was purchased (local warranty only). But problem is, that I bought it in New Delhi, India, where I was on business trip, and not going there in the nearest future. I also talked to local guy, who works at local HP service center, and he said, since this is not model for local market, there are very few chances that HP will give them firmware for this particular model. He said, that if I somehow will get flash dump of this particular bios, he may try to re-flash the bios chip using dedicated hardware.
