Unfortunately, this is not good

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.

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

 

Sure start (?) is listed here

Try 1 and 2 first

if that does not work you can try the first part of step 3

also try the "win + v" which can clear the CMOS

 

If none of the above work then the second part of 3 can be done but post back here first as it is more difficult.
