Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 rev 2
Latest bios (F.48) to be found at http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp55001-55...55430.exe.
The one before that (F.47) to be found at http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp52001-52...52190.exe.
I have found (and tried) the files by Camiloml at https://www.bios-mods.com/BIOS/index.php...miloml.exe and https://www.bios-mods.com/BIOS/index.php...miloml.exe respectively.
The outcome was the same in both cases. The system allowed for a normal boot with my new mini pci card (Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 rev 2) but when installing the Intel drivers, only the Bluetooth component started. No matter what I did, no network connection was possible (although I could see the nic in the device manager). WHen re-booting and entering the bios, the pc froze for half a minute and then proceeded to bios recovery mode and re-installed the HP Bios (F.48).
I'm assuming this bios needs some re-education...
