Victus by HP 16.1 inch Gaming Laptop PC 16-e0000 (2V9A1AV)
Microsoft Windows 11

Hi all,

 

I have a HP Invictus Gaming PC and today it required an update and then restarted. However it’s stuck at the on/off button coming on and off and screen quickly flashing. I tried to repair the BIOS with windows Key & B. Goes through the process then does the same. I can’t access the safe mode screen. Tried esc key and all the F keys to access this screen. Anyone have a solution? Or do I leave it for a few hours after the BIOS r update?

It’s running Windows 11 if that helps with a solution.

Maybe download a Victus 16-e0xxxx BIOS from HP.com/support page, and make a USB recovery disk, and try to use this disk to recovery BIOS (press Win+B) during POST, it will be fixed.
