• Invalid Serial Number Hp Bios Reset
• Serial Number Lookup

Hi everyone, Is there anyone who has experience in hacking HP LAPTOP BIOS? My HP laptop no longer shows serial number after i upgraded. Please enter your eligible product's serial number This serial number is invalid. Please try again, or scroll down for help. Look for the bar code stickers on your printer.The Serial number on a Samsung printer can be used wherever an HP serial number is requested. Samsung printers refer to a 'product number' as a 'model code. It's an HP G62-339wm and I have had it for about 2 1/2 years. I have seen posts where they say it has to be taken to a support center and all that jazz, but it is out of warranty and I am not paying for it. My motherboard was replaced after having an issue but during bootup i get a loud beep followed by 'Invalid Chassis Serial Number'. I have looked across forums and they say to press F10 to get into BIOS then CTRL A to be able to enter the Serial Number. First my machine is HP Prodesk 600G1 Tower PC. Wmic bios get serialnumber if run from a command line (start-run should also do the trick) prints out on screen the Serial Number of the product, (for example in a toshiba laptop it would print out the serial number of the laptop. Select Advanced, System IDs, and enter the serial number from the service tag sticker on the chassis. Press F10 to save settings and exit BIOS. For desktop branding, customers need to fill the following details availble on the HP sticker of the unit.

I have put together a robust HP Warrant Lookup PowerShell script. However, I cannot figure out how to get a HP system's product number in an automated process. So..

How can I get HP product number (not the serial number) via PowerShell? Although I would like to do with only built-in out-of-the-box Windows and PowerShell commands, I am open to other ideas. In the end, the ultimate goal is retrieve the product number in the most reliable and least invasive way possible (i.e. installing 3rd software).

Troubleshooting

Tried:

Get-WmiObject Win32_ComputerSystem Select-Object OEMStringArray

After update the bios, I went to the HP download center and updated the bios for my Compaq Presario CQ42 The update seemed to go fine, but now the product number, Model#, and serial number are.

Result: Hp g2410 installation software.

Here are some methods that work for various computer models.

Method 1 : Registry

The HP product number is in the registry so can be retrieved in PowerShellHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINEHARDWAREDESCRIPTIONSystemBIOSitem SystemSKU.

More information and script can be found in the article :
How to: Find the HP Product Number of all your HP server using powershell.

Method 2 : rootwmi – MS_SystemInformation

Class MS_SystemInformation contains the product number in its member SystemSKU.
(Presumably it gets it from the registry as in the first method.)

For more info see Richard Siddaway's Blog.

Method 3 : Class Win32_BIOS

The following fragment finds the product number for some computer makes. Tested on Dell.

The Microsoft reference information is found in the article Win32_BIOS class.

This is tested on a HP Laptop. I think HP 'Product number' is called SystemSKUNumber in win32_computersystem WMI. Tested on my HP laptop.

Will result in:

If anyone else comes across this question, be advised, the entirety of win32_computersystem doesn't appear to contain the product number for servers, specifically. I was unable to actually find the information via WMI, but it turns out I was actually given the product number AND serial numbers for a number of servers (the spreadsheet was horribly formatted, so the two fields just looked like one big string until my afternoon coffee kicked in).

Works on Windows 7 & Windows 10From another user that posted. @harrymc

the wmic bios get serialnumber command call the Win32_BIOS wmi class and get the value of the SerialNumber property, which retrieves the serial number of the BIOS Chip of your system.

run cmd

Enter wmic baseboard get product,version,serialnumber

Press the enter key. The result you see under serial number column is your motherboard serial number

if run from a command line (start-run should also do the trick) prints out on screen the Serial Number of the product,
(for example in a toshiba laptop it would print out the serial number of the laptop.
with this serial number you can then identify your laptop model if you need ,from the makers service website-usually.:):)

I had to do exactly that.:):)
