Welcome to the HP Forum. 

I can only suggest trying a Serial ISP Programmer if you can't flash the BIOS using the Aptio V AMI Firmware Update Utility.

Maybe the BIOS chip has a problem??

Oh, I think you will have to edit the Windows EFI system partition to remove the HP BIOS update: .Bin and .Sig files.

The buggy BIOS update will reflash the BIOS during Windows startup if you don't do the edit.

Or you will have to back up data. Then do a clean Windows install or a HP Cloud Recovery if you don't edit the EFI system partition.

Thank you I’ll try to do that the issue is that is freezes after a bit what software do you recommend to clear the efi file of the buggy bios ? I’m having an issue where the hp bios updater goes through but it shows it goes from the same software to the same software. It’s really hard to try to find a solution for this as they recommend I use the bios programmer to do it which I live in Belize which is a little hard to get stuff here. But thank you will try to edit the efi file.

My pleasure.

Maybe a local PC Tech could flash your PC's BIOS if you don't have a Serial ISP Programmer.

I'm not aware of any software available to edit the Windows EFI System partition.

This would be done using PowerShell. You would have to be familiar using the command prompt and working with the diskpart command.

I suggest backing up data. Now do a clean Windows install if you are not familiar with using the diskpart command.
