[Bug 1464060] Re: gparted reports a problem with a working drive

 

Peter Pfeiffer, as per http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice
/HP-Pavilion-Elite-HPE-500-Desktop-PC-series/5035344/model/5061007 an
update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (6.16).
If you update to this following
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?

If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, and the information above is provided, then
please mark this report Status Confirmed.

Thank you for your understanding.
