Hello everyone.

I want to update my system BIOS. The BIOS version currently installed is F.1A. The latest version available on HP website is F.22 Rev.A. I downloaded the setup file & ran it on my system. The the setup cancelled with an error message stating, "This BIOS update is not support legacy flash method. Please select "Create Recovery USB flash drive" to create crisis dongle and run this utility again."

Can anyone tell me how can I update my BIOS to latest version.
