  1. Hey thank you so much, I will try to use it with the usb recovery tool, if that does not work I will wait for the reprogrammer. Still thanks for the BIOS file.
  2. @Storm-Chaser hey FYI and for reference if someone else has a z840 avoid Updating the BIOS to M60_0259(Original was M60_0252), it will brick the Motherboard, i had a dead Z840, so i just brought a new/Used Z840 Motherboard from ebay, everything was working all the memory channels, both cpu sockets, but i was planning on using the E5-26xxV4 so i thought lets update the BIOS just to be safe and get all the new patches. Both Motherboards, the Upper one was the one i brought from Ebay to replace the Original Bottom one, that was dead This is the version of the BIOS that bricked the New motherboard Bad idea, it worked fine until i turned off the machine, after that i cannot make the computer POST, i tried everything on the HPE Support page, using the failbios set up, with the jumpers and a Recovery USB and nothing works, so i contacted HP(I know this Products are already EoL but i still tried) had 3 chats with different Support agens, all confirmed that its a known issue, but they still doesnt care to update the BIOS Driver page, or the HP Assitant to use a different rom than the M60_0259, since is EoL product i guess they dont support/care for it anyways. So please im looking for an older BIOS, i just brought a BIOS Programmer and i hope i can bring the Motherboard back to Life @Storm-Chaser i just saw that you are currently using a M60_0256 BIOS, could you please back it up and send it to me? it will be of great help, since i had a rought 2 days trying to find an older version, but everywhere theres only the one that bricked mine(Already try it, and still it does not work).
  3. mmm i just searched on Ebay and the only one i could find is this one i tried using the Model/Part number 635869-001 G0J48AA But no luck so far, do you happen to have a link for those AIO heatsinks? because almost 200USD its a little steep for just a cooler
  4. Hey stormchaser, one question, I also have the z840 but with a 2640v3, I'm looking to buy 2 2699v3 or 2696v3 but I don't know if the standard stock coolers are up to the task or do I need to buy the expensive hp Z cooler with the vapor chambers. Are you using the normal stock coolers with those 2696v3?
