    I have a dv6625us that I tried to update to pheonix Bios f.34 with the file right from HP's website. The install showed it was sucessfull, but after reboot now it won't start. I just get a black screen, lights, and fans go on.

    After removing the battery, I tried holding down the Win and B key while booting, but all I get is a very loud long beep then 2 short beeps which repeats does not seem to alternate, or do anything else.
    I also need the latest bios.wph file for this laptop. and a way to boot from a 2 gig flash drive. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
