HP Support on computer displayed update to BIOS. Chose that and installed. BIOS update has gone into loop.
It doesn't cross the second stage of reboot after updating. End up with blank screen.
What is the solution?

Hi
First:- Turn off the computer, press and hold the PWR button for 4 seconds.
Then - Leave only keyboard and mouse connected, disconnect all externally connected
devices such as Docking Station, USB storage devices, displays, and printers.
Unplug the AC adapter from the computer.
