My HP spectre has been working perfectly and now it will not take a charge, I tried restarting it with the little power that I had left and then turning it off to then hold the power button down for 15 seconds but that's when it wouldn't turn back on.  The charger works as I am able to charge my phone with it but no lights show up when plugged in.

After creating a USB key with a downloaded HP BIOS exe, boot with power + Win + V key combination I get:

Unable to open BIOS signature file.

 

There is a Firmware Management, Update and Rollback option in HP diagnostics utility, same result:

Unable to open BIOS signature file

...no matter which option you choose BIOS flash cannot continue for exactly the same reason, above.

I created several usb keys with different versions, same outcome.

Why is the utility unable to open a present! and freshly created USB with a supplied by HP signature file?

What's wrong?

HP Dreamcolor assistant cannot be installed

$

Dear Sirs,

 

I just received my brand new Zbook 15 G5 with dreamcolor display yesterday.

 

Product number: 3AX07AV

 

Serial Number: 5CD8498K1G

 

When I recieved the notebook, I realised the screen hasn't been calibrated correctly and the color of the screen has an obvious green tint.

 

I tried to install the HP dreamcolor assistant since my notebook has an intergrated color calibration sensor. However, I'm not able to install the software. 

 

I got an error code of 0x8070666-Another version of this product is already installed.

 

Please find attached the log file:

It seems like it's something to do with the VC runtime engine. 

 

I'll be grateful if you can help me to solve this problem.

 

Many thanks.
