Product: HP Pavilion 15.6 inch Gaming Laptop PC 15-ec2000 IDS Base Model
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11
i've recently plugged in my laptop after it's been off for about a month, and it's reading error 3F0. however, my UEFI menu is stuck at V.2.8.8.0, lacking all of the features any guides i can find suggest to fix this issue with, and it doesn't seem like i can do anything from only the limited menus i have access to to update it. is there anything i can do, or should i live out my dream of tearing the thing in half?
