Thank you!
Can you confirm how many beeps there were? 2, 3? And were they fast?
Best Regards,

Sometimes it's only 1 but many times it's 2 or what sounds like 5+ somewhat fast. But what I would consider to be as fast or slow may be different from you.
Edit: I just got 1 beep right now. Long pause and got 2 slow beeps.

Sorry for all the questions mate, but I just need to get into the situation. :)
So you haven't had any BSODs since updating the BIOS? Are you getting the beeps during the boot only, or inside Windows? The beeps might mean that BIOS has updated successful, or it's some features. More serious it's telling you that something failed, but if you can boot properly, it might not be that serious after all.

It's ok, I understand! :)
I haven't had any BSOD since update but I continue getting the beeps randomly throughout the day. I've tried looking into it myself and some people say that 1-2 beeps is nothing to be too worried about. It's pretty much what you said about something failing. It just gets annoying and I was hoping to correct it so that I don't get the beeps anymore.
Thanks for all your help with my problems. If I have anymore problems in the latter future do I continue posting on this thread or do I start a new one?
You can disable those beeps in BIOS if you desire. If your BSOD is no longer appearing, it's amazing. Congratulations. :)
You can post in the same thread if you experience further issues, if I don't answer, just leave me a PM!

Do I need the beeps? I mean will it be ok to disable them? How do I disable the beeps?
Many people on the HP forums are having same issues, and their computer works just fine. It actually can be disabled within Windows. It was system beeps right? Not sounds within Windows. If yes, go to Device Manager > Press View > Select Show hidden devices > Select Non-Plug and Play Drivers - Find Beep, Right click it and Uninstall it.
There's a useful thread below, explaining warranty and fixes.

NEW PROBLEM
I'm having problems yet again with my laptop. I've had occasional BSOD since my last post, but just recently I've experienced multiple BSOD in a day. I've also experienced screen freezing and random restarts on top of the BSOD. I've attached a .zip of my dump files.
