Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.

 

I have a few troubleshooting steps we could try to fix the issue:  

  • Unplug everything, including power and all other externally connected components
  • Press and hold down the power button for 30sec.
  • Release the power button and restart the computer in the normal way 

Keep me posted for further assistance.

This sounds like BIOS file is corrupted, In order to fix this issue, you need to download a BIOS software driver using another computer and then flash the system.

  1. Insert a blank USB flash drive into an available port on the second computer.

  2. Go to HP Software & Driver Downloads and enter the product number of the original computer.

    NOTE: If you upgraded the original computer to a new Windows version, in the Selected operating system pane, click Change, select the original operating system that came with your computer, and then click Change.
  3. Click BIOS, and then review the details of the latest available version or the specific version recommended for the recovery. Confirm it is the correct BIOS update before proceeding.

  4. Click Download, and then click Run.

  5. In the InstallShield Wizard window, click Next.

    InstallShield Wizard

  6. Select I accept the terms in the license agreement, and then click Next.

  7. Choose to remove or keep the files after the recovery, and then click Next to open the HP BIOS Update and Recovery window.

  8. Select Create Recovery USB flash drive, and then click Next.

    Create Recovery USB flash drive in HP System BIOS Update Utility

  9. Select your USB flash drive, and then click Next to copy the BIOS file to the drive.

  10. When 'The recovery flash drive was created successfully' displays, click Finish.

  11. Remove the flash drive from the computer. Click here to watch the Video and also Click here watch video on how to Install the BIOS recovery file.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
