And what happened? The fan-issues were back! He said 'Yes, its recommended to update the bios'. But this time (mid of november) I called the HP support first and asked If this update is well tested and If there are any thermal issues. First thing I did was to remove all the HP software, which could try to update the BIOS.īut as the new BIOS should fix some known security issues, I still wanted to update the Bios at some time. (I didnt try to install the update, but ok). Time went on and I saw (in November) in the Device-Manager that the Bios failed to update. The support also told me, that they published the Bios F23 some time in March 2020 - but they removed it again after a short time because there were problems with this bios. After this, I had Bios F22 again and I didn't face the fan-issues. So I called the support - we tried to reset the CMOS without success and finally I had to send It back to HP and got it replaced (props for HP: It only took 5 days until the device was back!). But unfortunatly the BIOS downgrade did not work at all - My Spectre was totally broken - no boot - no bios-access. So I moved on and found out, how to downgrade the Bios (I will NOT tell you how to do this. I thought that this is part of the issue. It went pretty hot without cooling - even sometimes the Thermal Shutdown was triggered! After shutting down and booting (not just rebooting!) the fan started again.Īfter searching around, I found out that I had Bios F23 installed - but the hp driver website only listed F22. In August I first recognized the fan-issues. I'm pretty sure this issue came with Bios F23.
