Dear HP Support,
I am experiencing a critical issue with my HP device after attempting a recent BIOS update. Following the update, my system emits 8 beeps upon startup, and the display remains blank. I have tried multiple troubleshooting steps, including resetting the CMOS, reseating components, disconnecting peripherals, attempting BIOS recovery using the Windows + B key combination, and creating a BIOS recovery USB. Despite these efforts, the issue persists, and the keyboard shuts off immediately after the beeping sequence, rendering any further recovery attempts impossible. Given the severity of this problem, I believe the BIOS may be corrupted, and I am unable to restore functionality.
Please advise on the next steps to resolve
