topic Pavilion Notebook BIOS and Battery Questions in Operating System - Microsoft https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-microsoft/pavilion-notebook-bios-and-battery-questions/m-p/2592224#M1531 Hi,<BR /><BR />I have a few questions:<BR /><BR />Issue #1<BR />Has anyone with a HP N5340 notebook upgraded to the newer v1.63 BIOS? One of the new features included is a battery calibration feature in the BIOS.<BR /><BR />However, I've heard that HP issued a battery calibration program for the 3000 series notebooks a while ago but created problems for some users such as decreasing battery capacity.<BR /><BR />Has anyone tried the battery calibration function on the N5340 or any of the HP N5000 series notebooks?<BR /><BR /><BR />Issue #2<BR />Does anyone know how to revive the additional BIOS setttings such as memory timings, AGP Aperture size, etc. that were supressed by HP? I have a Pavilion N5340 notebook and many functions have been hidden. I understand that HP does this to streamline technical support issues, but I'd like to change some of these settings to fine tune the system.<BR /><BR />Thanks,<BR /><BR />Brian Auyoung Wed, 10 Oct 2001 05:18:45 GMT Helen French 2001-10-10T05:18:45Z Pavilion Notebook BIOS and Battery Questions https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-microsoft/pavilion-notebook-bios-and-battery-questions/m-p/2592224#M1531 Hi,<BR /><BR />I have a few questions:<BR /><BR />Issue #1<BR />Has anyone with a HP N5340 notebook upgraded to the newer v1.63 BIOS?
