Microsoft has a safety scanner you can try
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/defender-endpoint/safety-scanner-download

 

Scan for "Malicious" software.  Type MRT in the windows search bar.

 

The most recent bios is here but you might want to just do an HP factory reset

HP is removing cloud recovery for system over 5 years old. You may want to get a copy of the cloud recovery before it is too late.
Cloud recovery provides all the custom HP drivers.
Go to the below site and enter your product ID including the 3 characters after the # character
If you have cloud recovery you can restore your system using a 32gb flash.
It may take an hour or more to create the recovery USB.

Alternately, download from the MS windows store
