xHi @IT-FORTUNE,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

If your HP 14 laptop is experiencing booting issues and it's indicating that the "Manufacture programming mode is unlocked," it could indicate a few potential problems.

• Boot Configuration: The system might be trying to boot from a non-standard configuration or a mode typically used during manufacturing or maintenance.
• Firmware/BIOS Settings: There might be a setting in the BIOS (UEFI) that needs adjustment. Sometimes, manufacturers provide special modes for programming or debugging, which could interfere with normal boot processes if enabled improperly.
• Hardware Issue: In some cases, this message could indicate a hardware problem, particularly with the motherboard or storage device.

Here's what you can try.

• Reset BIOS/UEFI Settings: Restart the laptop and access the BIOS/UEFI setup (usually by pressing a key like F2, F10, or Del during boot). Look for an option to reset the BIOS/UEFI settings to default or optimized settings. Save changes and restart.
• Check Boot Order: While in the BIOS/UEFI settings, ensure that the boot order is correct, with the primary boot device being the internal hard drive where the operating system is installed.
• Disable Manufacturing Modes: Look for any options related to manufacturing or programming modes and ensure they are disabled unless you specifically need them.
• Hardware Check: If the issue persists, it might be worth running hardware diagnostics. Many laptops have built-in diagnostics tools accessible during startup (usually by pressing a specific key combination). This can help identify if there's a hardware issue causing the problem.

Always be cautious when making changes to BIOS/UEFI settings, as incorrect configurations can potentially cause further issues.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
