I actually contacted HP support via WhatsApp and was given the following advice. Upgrade the BIOS from F6 to F8 and then to upgrade Windows using the following link:

That fixed my problem.

Interesting.

It id not occur to me that you were running Windows 2004 without having updated to the latest BIOS that supports it.

Excellent.

Thanks for posting back so others can benefit!

General Comments

Odd issues, sudden problems after Windows Update - even Windows Update not running correctly (or completely) might indicate a need to update the BIOS (if possible, of course). 

Other oddities might be resolved by updating a particular software / driver to a version supported by the current version of Windows (for example, a newer Fingerprint driver for Windows 2004).
