@Manish1990, Welcome to HP Support Community!

 

Have you tried a different USB drive?

 

Also, no boot into windows says BIOS seems to be corrupted will need to reflash the bios in the service center.

 

Please reach out to the HP Support in your region for further assistance.

 

Hope this helps!

@TEJ1602 Thanks for responding.

 

I tried with different usb drive also but no luck with that too.

 

I had this issue before also like 2-3 years ago but at that time I did follow the process from this link (https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c02693833) and got the laptop recovered successfully.

 

 

But now when I try to create USB recovery drive with the above link I do not get below options 

 

 

 

I am using BIOS file from this URL for downloading the BIOS file I am using this link and choosing Windows 8 (64-bit) OS https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-pavilion-g6-2300-notebook-pc-series/5330578/mode...

 

The above URL gives me this link (https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp77001-77500/sp77491.exe) to download BIOS file.

 

I even asked my friend to create USB recovery drive from his laptop but the result was same (He also did not get those 3 options).

 

 

Please look into this I strongly believe that the problem is with sp77491.exe file.
