I placed a message yesterday about no boot device found. While I appreciate all the advice, I can’t even get on the computer to try them.
how do I get off this site so the emails stop?

Hi:
If you can read all 25 characters of the windows 7 product key on your PC's case, you may be able to reinstall W7 as follows...
Click on the Windows ISO Downloader.exe link to download the tool to create the W7 ISO file download.
Select the Windows COEM ISO file download for the version of W7 the product key is good for.
I have zipped up and attached the Microsoft utility below, that will allow you to either put the file on a USB flash drive or burn it to a DVD.
bonsoir, s'il plait j'aimerais réinitialiser le mot de passe de mon bios. Il est sécurisé.

I would guess that you found the BIOS update in HP Support Assistant.
If the Assistant downloaded and started the BIOS update,
If the BIOS update is indeed the correct Update for your computer,
then it is possible the only problem is that the BIOS update could not complete.
The following MIGHT resolve the issue of "stuck" update.
“Press and Pray”
IF the BIOS update is just stuck / stubborn / frozen-in-place half way through the update / boot process,
IF there is not actually anything wrong with the windows installation or the File System,
The following procedure might resolve the issue.

What is your EliteBook 840G ? There are few generations of EliteBook 840 machines.
I think the latest series is G5 (November 2018) which has many different models/products with many different options or configurations and IR Camera (to support Hello face recognition) is an option. Did you buy this option or not ? If not then software can't find compatible device.
Regards.

I've been attempting to login to my laptop with my usual microsoft password. My laptop says it is incorrect, although I have never changed it. When I click 'reset password', it comes up with the error message 'this feature requires removable media such as a USB flash drive. Please connect a USB flash drive, and then try again.'
Please advise on how to move forward

I checked the failure ID you have provided, and it looks like the hard drive on the computer is gone bad and needs replacement.

Help: Had a motherboard failure on my HP SPectre x360 within 6 months of factory warranty expiration. I am in graduate school and went into debt buying what I thought would be a great computer that could get me through my 3 year program because I was told it was a quality product that was worth the money (my fault in retrospect). Unfortunately I was wrong. Paid close to $2000 for a computer that no longer works only a little longer than 2 years after purchase. Sent it in to best buy (where I bought the computer from), was told it was a failed motherboard and would cost nearly $700 to fix. This is one of FOUR HP laptops to fail on me right after factory warranty expiration in the last 8 years. HP has done nothing to help in the past so I am reaching out one last time. I cannot get a hold of HP tech support via telephone so I turned here. If HP refuses to help this time I will no longer be purchasing products from this company and will advising all of the people I work with in the University and the hospital to stay away from HP products as the products they produce constantly break and are not backed by the company that created them. I have spent way too much money to have to buy a new product every 2 years. I am asking one last time for help and then I will be moving on.
I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post personal information (serial numbers and case details).
If you are unfamiliar with how the Forum's private message capability works, you can learn about that here.
