Welcome to HP Support Community,
Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue
The advanced BIOS settings on your HP laptop are locked to prevent any accidental changes that could potentially harm your system. Modifying certain settings in the BIOS, such as CPU configurations, memory timings, or security features, could cause your laptop to become unstable or unbootable. This protective measure is in place to ensure that only experienced users or technicians make these adjustments, as incorrect changes can lead to issues like hardware malfunction, overheating, or even permanent damage to the system.
It’s important to be cautious when working with BIOS settings, as even small alterations can have serious consequences for the laptop's functionality. If you need to access these settings for a specific reason, it’s best to proceed carefully and consider the risks involved.
I hope these steps help resolve the issue
