Laptop freezes on HP logo at startup and not responding to any key press either accessing bios, i tried to update bios several times and whenever i try screen goes black and nothing open indicating bios update only blinking Caps Lock.
I am using windows 10 X64 with UEFI Enabled on GPT drive structure.
Prior several days laptop still removing all bios settings and does not show any boot devices, so i restored it to defaults several times and got bios settings back, at first i thought it is motherboard battery problem, then when removing Laptop battery and without charger plugged date and time was not changed.
I Tried Hard reset and CMOS Reset without any positive results.

Hi
First:- Turn off the computer, press and hold the PWR button for 4 seconds.
Then - Leave only keyboard and mouse connected, disconnect all externally connected
devices such as Docking Station, USB storage devices, displays, and printers.
Unplug the AC adapter from the computer.
Next - Press and Hold the Power button for 15 seconds to Hard Reset.
Rinse and Repeat
NOW begin checking/testing/proving the Hardware is fit for purpose.
Power on your PC, press ESC (repeatedly), then F2 at the prompt.
Choose System Tests (Fast Test does a 4 minute hardware check).
AND/OR
HOW DO I USE DIAGNOSTICS?
HP PC Hardware Diagnostics Windows is a Windows-based utility that allows you to run diagnostic tests to determine if the computer hardware is functioning properly. The tool runs within the Windows operating system in order to diagnose hardware failures. HP PC Hardware Diagnostics Windows comes pre-installed on new HP computers, but if not on yours, download here:- http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp93001-93500/sp93457.exe

IF you had a series of flashing LED 's from the caps or NUM lock or similar and followed the link I posted you may have a better outcome.
OR this...
Hopefully one of these documents will cover (and solve) your problem...

Turn off the computer, and then connect the power cord.
Press and hold the Windows key and the B key at the same time, and then press and hold the power button for 2 to 3 seconds.
Release the Power button but continue pressing the Windows and B keys. You might hear a series of beeps.
The HP BIOS Update screen displays and the recovery begins automatically. Follow any on-screen prompts to continue the startup to complete the recovery.
HP BIOS Update recovery in progress
If the HP BIOS Update screen does not display, repeat the previous steps but press the Windows key and the V key. If the screen still does not display, your computer might not support the feature or there is a hard drive issue. Continue to the next step to install a BIOS recovery file from the HP website.
If the Power light turns off, the Power button was held too long. Repeat the previous steps, making sure to hold the button for only 2 to 3 seconds.

- Currently I am on a smartphone.
- But somewhere in that beep code document is a lis of error messages for BIOS updates exclusively.
But I cannot help as I don't know the extent of your problem.
You can try and make a flash drive to fix the Bios,
