I did a driver update on the computer. Now when I try to turn it on the computer does 8 long beeps then 2 longs and 2 beeps. Nothing appears on the monitor.

hi

there is no reference here with 8 long it goes up to 5

https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/ish_1997210-1528385-16
But 2 long 2 short

The red light blinks twice, and then two, short white light blinks (2 long red, 2 short white)

This condition indicates that the main area (DXE) of the BIOS has become corrupted and no recovery binary image is available. It can also occur when updating the BIOS.

  1. Allow the system to complete its updates and any changes.

Attempt Sure Start Recovery if the updates are not installing as expected.

 

so Do you know if a bios update has been done?

I haven't done any bios updates i just installed new drivers

I searched on internet and I did Windows+B method and the computer only do 2 long and 2 short beeps when I do this method

You didn't update the bios, ok, but you're telling me that you wanted to use a bios recovery method, which caused this?
to fix corrupted bios on desktop computer is very difficult most of the time..
but tell me everything you tried, where the drivers come from, I don't understand how you can go from a simple driver download to this!

 

 Recovering the BIOS (Basic Input Output System)
