Welcome to the HP Forums!
Thank you for posting your query on this forum, it's a great place to find answers.
I reviewed your post and I understand that you want to know how to access BIOS on your computer.
Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.
If you want to boot using the USB flash drive, then you need to disable secure boot and enable legacy support in BIOS.
I recommend you follow the steps in the below article to disable secure boot.
