Installation

Caution

Once you update to 3.20, you can only downgrade to 3.06 or above.

You can check your current BIOS version following the steps here to determine if you are on the latest release.

Note

You must update with a charger attached.

Linux

Framework firmware is published to LVFS and updates via fwupd, which ships by default on most modern distributions.

fwupdmgr refresh --force
fwupdmgr get-updates
fwupdmgr update

Caution

LVFS may not update if the battery is at 100%.
If you experience issues, discharge to 95%, plug AC back in, then re-run fwupdmgr update.

Windows

1. Download the Framework Laptop 13 AMD Ryzen™ 7040 Series BIOS 3.20 Windows Installer.
2. Run the .exe and click "Yes" when prompted to reboot.
3. Wait for the firmware progress bar to complete — the system will reboot automatically. Do not interrupt.
4. Download and install the Windows Driver Bundle v2.08 for your system if you are currently using a previous Driver Bundle release, or you are installing the Driver Bundle for the first time.

EFI Shell Update

Note

If you use the EFI shell update with Windows, you should suspend Bitlocker if enabled before updating using the EFI updater.
1. Download the EFI Shell Update v3.20.
2. Extract contents of zip folder to a FAT32 formatted USB drive. Cleanly unmount the drive before physically removing it, otherwise the BIOS update may not function correctly.
3. Attach a charger to your device while updating.
4. Boot your system while pressing F12 and boot from the thumb drive.
5. Let startup.nsh run automatically.
6. Follow the instructions to install the update.

Updating a Mainboard without a Laptop

This release supports standalone updates without a battery attached. After rebooting, please follow the onscreen instructions to update your BIOS when in standalone mode, which will require moving the power source between both sides of the Mainboard to allow PD firmware to update correctly.

Caution

The power and display output must be connected to the same side during standalone updates. Failure to do this may result in no display output during the update process.

1. Ensure that standalone operation is enabled in the BIOS advanced setup menu.
2. Connect the external display to upper left port.
3. Connect the power to the lower left port.
4. Run the updater from EFI/Windows updater.
5. After rebooting into the updater, the update will commence. The updater will update the BIOS and EC.

6. The Updater will update the PD controller that is not connected to the power source.

7. You will see one PD controller will fail the update with the X, and "Update Complete" is displayed, but the BIOS will restart. At this screen, the BIOS update will stop. You must disconnect the display and power source, and move them to the other side. * Connect the display to the top right port. * Connect power to the bottom right port.

8. Press the power button, and the second PD update will complete.

9. After this, the system will reboot, and your BIOS update is complete.

Known Issues

• BIOS display output may not show up in standalone mode when booting the first time. To work around this, boot into the OS and restart pressing F2 to enter the setup menu.
• When updating in standalone mode, there may be no display output after updating one side's PD firmware. Connect power and display on the same side when performing a BIOS update in standalone mode.
• Connecting with iPhones over type-c may be unstable.

Reporting Issues

Please use the public issue tracker on GitHub to report issues.

If you experience an issue with the update that is related to your system firmware, please post as complete a description as you can, including relevant system information and external peripherals. Please note that we do not currently have a SLA for responding to issues on github, but we will be reviewing them through the bios release process, and will review them for future updates as well.

Please contact support if you have an issue regarding hardware, broken devices, returns, etc.
