My laptop is a HP Victus FB1000, and it suddenly won’t turn on. The power button just keeps blinking, and the screen remains black. Initially, a pop-up appeared stating:

 

“Firmware Update.
Do not power off the system while it's updating. The device may reboot several times, and the whole update process may take a few minutes.”

 

After a few minutes, another pop-up appeared:

“The CMOS checksum is invalid. The CMOS will reset to the default configuration, and the computer will restart. Afterwards, please check the BIOS setup options to see if they change.

CMOS Reset (502)

ENTER Restart the computer.”

 

When I press Enter, the laptop turns on and works for a few minutes, but then it shuts down on its own. When I try to restart it, the same process repeats. It’s stuck in a loop. 

 

Update: I tried updating the BIOS but it says failed
