I have an MS 7525 Mobo - its OEM product of s5220y HP Slim PC,
I am trying everything I can to update the BIOS on it. HP's support site has zero BIOS update drivers. I can't find anything anywhere that is a legit BIOS update.

Reason why I am trying to update BIOS is because there is a "System Fan Has Failed" error is appearing in POST. Reason why is because no fan is plugged in. It's a 3 wire device on the MOBO. I don't have any fans with all three wires, only positive and ground fans (2 wires).

Another approach I tried was to go into the BIOS, that resides on the MOBO now, and go into the Hardware Monitor option to disable the fan, but there is no Hardware Monitor options in the BIOS.

Does anyone have any suggestions or thoughts?
Thanks!

you said this "Another approach I tried was to go into the BIOS, that resides on the MOBO now, and go into the Hardware Monitor option to disable the fan, but there is no Hardware Monitor options in the BIOS."
so how can you put the "here is the solution" message?

Apparently you didn't read the article I posted. The trick is in it, and it works.
Thank you.
