I need to change some advanced options in my bios but it's too simple and does not show enough option to configure.

I specially need to disable/enable ACPI, be able to switch sata between IDE and AHCI and etc.

these options are available in other bioses and some of others versions of insydeh20 but they seem to be hidden.

I am ok with trying modified bios [if it's required], but I could not find anything for this version.

any help would be appreciated.

@thg303,

 

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 the advanced options in the BIOS to modify the ACPI options etc.

 

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

 

HP Pc’s uses a customized BIOS setting (Tattooed BIOS) of which some features including overclocking and increasing the VRAM are unavailable.

This is done in the best interest of safeguarding the PC for the optimal performance and not to cause any extensive component failure.

To conclude, the settings are set to a specific value and it's locked and cannot be changed. Nevertheless, you can go ahead and install a third party BIOS or make changes to the BIOS using third-party tools at your own risk.

 

Hope the information shared will help you and you have a great day!

 

If you wish to show appreciation for my efforts, mark my post as Accept as Solution. Your feedback counts!

 

Cheers!
