PC wakes up OK, a gazillion OS updates installed OK, Win 11 z2H2 ? , worked a day getting updates for external devices, adjusting visual settings  seemed fine...but HP BIOS UPDATE LOOPING, TOOK PIC OF NEW BLOCKS, LOOPING AGAIN, GOT MENU FOR DIAG TESTS, BUT NOW diags out of date, error sez go to HP.com get support, pay for new suppt plan, SUddenly bios new image being written, WIN OS  shows PIN entry picture  PIN good, now desktop appears...

QUESTION?  HOW DO I KNOW I AM OK TO PROCEED?   WHAT HAPOENED?  RUN TESTS NOW ??

I WILL NOT UPDATE ECTERNAL DEVICES - THEY WORK NOW !

OTHER FILKS COMING 2000 MILES in 6 weeks, why risk more failures until after they come, project completed  THEN MAYBE DEAL W BIOS NEEDS, OTHER RESULTANT ISSUES .
