OMEN by HP 45L Gaming Desktop PC IDS Base Models (ArticunoI)
Microsoft Windows 11

I am clean installing windows 11 and I want to know what the different jumper settings are for. It says FDD/PSWD/BBR when I tried searching online I found out that these are so top secret there are no descriptions or step by step instructions when I leave the jumper off it says that I am in manufacturing mode. can anyone help me please,
