Failed Reading BIOS Signature File HP Pavilion x360 - 11m-ap0013dx
#1
Hello, I am trying to get this laptop HP Pavilion x360 - 11m-ap0013dx out of a BIOS update loop. So far, I've tried every BIOS update available on HP's website up to F.05 since I can't get F.02 or F.01 to run on my machine. I can't seem to get the laptop passed the BIOS signature verification.

Here's a piece of the log file:
2018-01-02 01:39:46  EFI HP BIOS Update 3.8.0.0 Started
2018-01-02 01:39:46  [L]> System ID: Type

2018-01-02 01:39:48  Failed Reading .sig file. (Not Found)

The date on the left side is wrong but everything else is being logged correctly since it's showing on the flash drive I'm trying to flash it with. When I check the path it is referring to, I see the 085C1.bin and 085C1.s12 files but not 085C1.sig file. 
Is there a way to generate the 085C1.sig file or find it somewhere else? So far, all my Googling hasn't returned much results. Any help is appreciated!
