Any difference with F.0F/Win 7 combo? (tx2500)

The new F.0F BIOS adds "support for future Windows operating systems." Having already put Windows 7 on my tablet, I personally haven't seen anything positive or negative from the update. Anyone with more noticeable improvement/problems with this combo?

 

I updated the BIOS b4 installing Win7. Seems normal to me.

 

Ran on both BIOS, no difference as far as I can see.

 

Same here, looks the same. Maybe some memory allocation changes...

 

Same here, no change

 

Before I updated, if I were to start the computer in tablet mode the keyboard wouldn't work until I restarted in laptop mode. This was fixed with the update. I don't know if it improved Windows 7 at all though.

 

The keyboard issue may have been fixed with BIOS revision F.0B or a version before that, about 6-7 months ago, so there are officially no superficial changes we can see. I do notice I'm having sporadic issues with my Quick Launch buttons and auto screen rotation when I enter tablet mode. Nothing horrible like the keyboard bug, but a nuisance nonetheless.

 

I dont about you guys, but I am unable to skip the PXE boot at startup, even when disabled from the BIOS

am i the only one with this issue ?

my model is 2513cl running this latest bios F.0F

 

I think only you have this problem. I flashed to F.0F and have no problems at all. You can try disable it from bios and reflash it again with the same bios to see if it's working.

 

Functionally the computer is fine, but I noticed a slower startup time the HP BIOS screen.
