HP Recommended
Product: Probook 650 G2
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hy ,
I have a Probook 650 G2 , model  L8U48AV.
I have a Bios Update that failed, and now system is not booting, in fact doing nothing.
I have nothing on screen. 
After some research here I found that you can force a Bios rollback by holding the "Win" and "B" keys while turning on.

If I do that I get nothing on screen , but i get 2 Lower beeps+ 2 Sharper beeps, this 5 times in a row. 
But still nothing on screen.
See https://support.hp.com/si-en/document/c02693833
I thus tried to make a "emergency" Bios Update USB drive.   By the description in above guide , you can do that on an other machine... probleme is the other machines I have is a non HP and an old  HP NC6320 .. If I try to use SP90282.exe on these older machines, the option "Create Recovery USB flash drive" is greyed out thus not selectable.
It thus seems that for making an emergency USB Bios Recovery drive you need the same or somewhat equal machine.
I tried , on my nc6320 to make a bootable USB drive with the nc6320 bios tools but off course the probook does not take it..
I also, based on other topics made the folders  EFI/BIOS/CURRENT  , EFI/BIOS/NEW , EFI/BIOS/PREVIOUS ,  same in  /Hewlett-Packard\BIOS  , and put the N76_0133.bin in every folder ... but no vail...
So the only solution I still see is, that somebody with a probook 650 makes a USB Bios recovery drive, rips that in a ISO or other image and puts that online. 

If anybody has a good idea , your more than welcome..
