I'm trying to install a BIOS update but it is telling me that there is not enough free disk space. Are there any easy solutions to fix this without having to install any third party software?

There is not enough space in the EFI partition to make a bios backup.
Use the second option and create a bootable USB flash drive
Have you run diagnostics?
Tap the ESC key after powering on to run diagnostics.
Do not allow any updates if disk or memory fail, especially a BIOS update.
It is always dangerous to upgrade bios. Unless there is a real need and the HP support assistant requests the upgrade, I would not do it. Look at the BIOS revision history and see if an upgrade is useful. Updates that improve security are needed in a corporate environment but for gaming system they will likely slow down your system.
I personally would not upgrade any gaming BIOS that was only security related unless the PC was used in a corporate, industrial or military organization.
Check your warranty and decided if you want to risk a BIOS upgrade

The update is there in the HP support assistant but when I tried to install it from there it said update failed and it just booted my OS. I tried downloading it from the HP site and that's when I encountered this error. Since it's in the HP support assistant I assumed it was recommended for installation. That's why I'm trying to install it.

Select the second option and boot the USB to do the upgrade
l do not know what your laptop model is so cannot make a recommendation about the bios upgrade.

It's a desktop PC and this is the model I'm using.

There are 4 different ROM family BIOS available. I assume there are 4 different versions of your motherboard

Look up the board id for your system and then look at the version history to see what you are getting into.
I noticed that most upgrades were security related. There were a number of upgrades where no "fix" was listed which is suspicious.
