Hello,
The BIOS on my computer recently corrupted and I am trying to flash BIOS from a USB drive to my computer. I downloaded the only BIOS file that is available for my computer and I open it, accept all the agreements, and extract the files. After that nothing shows up, and the 'HP BIOS Update and Recovery' window with the options to create a recovery drive don't show up. Inside of the extracted file there is one .exe but when you open it, nothing pops up as well. Hopefully I am able to get a solution so I can flash the BIOS.

Hi @Cheross,
Welcome to the HP Support Community
I understand you are facing a BIOS-related issue with your HP Pavilion 15 Laptop PC 15-Eh2000. Not to worry I will help you to get a resolution to resolve the issue.
Lets' try the below steps:
Crisis BIOS Recovery
- 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.
- 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 section to Recover the BIOS using a USB recovery drive.
- If the Power light turns off, the Power button was held too long. Repeat the previous steps, making sure to hold the Power button for only 2 to 3 seconds.
- If a BIOS recovery message repeatedly displays, continue to the next section to Recover the BIOS using a USB recovery drive.
- If a message that the computer improperly shut down or a boot problem is detected displays, follow the on-screen instructions to resolve the error.
- If Windows starts, update to the latest BIOS version. Go to HP Notebook PCs - Updating the BIOS for more information.
The HP BIOS Update screen displays and the recovery begins automatically.
If the issue persists, then please follow the steps mentioned on this document: HP PCs - Computer does not boot or start
