Hello all,
I just bought this refurbished laptop, "HP Pavilion 17-e189nr Notebook PC."
It has Win8.1 installed on it. I suppose the BIOS is UEFI. I don't know much else and what I have been able to read about the BIOS is not very conclusive to me.
I have found that the BIOS is F.31 and the file is SP65062.exe
It is here;
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp65001-65500/sp65062.exe
I have ordered a AzureWave Broadcom BCM94352HMB 802.11AC WiFi card. I presume that it will be whitelisted.
Has anyone removed the whitelist in this BIOS and unlocked any hidden menu's ? My search was inconclusive. What can you tell me about it and about modding it ?
Thanks
Fuzz
