Need original Compaq S6200CL (Kamet2) bios file

SCTechGuy · 16 Feb 2013

I've recently been working on a friend's old S6200CL and flashed its BIOS with version 3.10. After that, it appears that I can enter the BIOS screen using either F1 or F11 but depending on which one I press, some of the menu options aren't the same. I believe I may not have flashed it properly. Getting to the point, I'm wondering if anyone knows how to get a copy of the original BIOS which should be version 3.06.

*NOTE*
I'm looking for the original (3.06) BIOS file for the S6200CL using the Kamet2 motherboard, NOT the Kelut motherboard.

No, unfortunately, that's where I got the 3.10 BIOS from. HP doesn't have a listing for the 3.06 BIOS since it was an old Compaq BIOS.

I'm trying to see if anyone has made a backup of the old 3.06 Compaq BIOS that they can share.

You will need to contact HP they will be able to point you in the right direction or provide a link to the original bios .bin file you need if not in drivers and downloads.

This is for creating OEM versions of Windows installations. I've gone down that path trying to create a specific OEM version for re-install but that hasn't worked.
