I Recently Tried to do a bios update and we had a power outage due an accident nearby hitting a pole,

 

Now the Bios is displaying a corrupted Bios and wants to recover,  its has like 8-10 Beeps then reboots, Then displays a second message about the bios files cant be found are are corrupt .

I Have made the USB Bios Recovery Tool 

I have tried many times but the screen that shows up keeps telling me that the bios files cant be found is there something im missing 

 

im also curious about the 2 jumpers on the board by the wifi /  BT Adaper i cant find anything on these 2 jumpers

you may have the wrong files.  There are two listed here

click on "choose another product" and put in your serial number and see if it can identify exactly which BIOS is needed.

 

Alternatively look on your motherboard for a four digit code that matches the ssid number if none match you'll have to contact tech support 1) Click on this link -

I have older systems that do not recognize the win + B key so have no experience.  I believe there has to be a copy of an old BIOS in a hidden sector on the disk drive.

 

if that did not work, did you follow this guide exactly for using a usb?

I do see the USB Drive Lighting Up and some activity probably searching for the bios file

 

here is the folder structure of the HP_TOOLS USB Bios Flash Drive
