Hi,
I have an HP Pavilion Sleekbook 15-b105la, with corrupt bios failure, so it doesn't boot up, only black screen and blinking caps lock light twice every 2 ~ 3 seconds.
I need to create a recovery USB flash drive, but the latest bios executable file available for download, version F.1E Rev.A (sp77495.exe) does not include this option, insted it goes straight into flashing bios window. There are no other options offered prior to this screen:
Is there another way to create a USB BIOS recovery flash drive to fix the currupt bios?
Thanks in advance.

@Sandytechy20,
Thanks for your reply, but as I described before, the computer is not booting up, because of a currupt BIOS. So I don't need a usb windows recovery flash drive.
What I need is to create a usb BIOS recovery flash drive, which is not provided in the latest (and older) bios executable update files in HP support page for this model.
Could you provide a link to download an image for USB BIOS Recovery flash drive on this model?
Thanks in advance.
