Thanks for the reply.
I downloaded the UEFI update you posted and still got nowhere. Pressing ESC doesnt halt bootup at all. The Computer still boots like nothing is being done.
Just got a reply from HP Customer Service. They want me to send the computer in to be repaired. Seems to think its a hardware issue. Luckily it is under warranty, but I still have to rebuild my old computer to use while this one is sent out.
Thanks for the replies everyone. Hopefully I will get back a functioning computer soon.
