HP EliteBook 1040 G4 Notebook PC

I updated my HP EliteBook 1040 G4 with the latest BIOS update from HP website (P96 Ver.01.50) dated 07/17/2024

After BIOS update the following two messages come up on the screen during the boot process:

1. (A7) ME FW Downgrade - request mespilock failed

2. ME FW Update Failed, please try again!

My assumption is that the BIOS has been corrupted and wanted to see if there is an earlier version of the BIOS I could download and update to resolve the issue(s).
