Hi,

Here you can find the latest BIOS provided for your notebook

https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-elitebook-8460p-notebook-pc/5056942

 

You can also try to create an administrator password in the security settings in the BIOS and then reboot and enter BIOS. See if now when you make changes they are saved. I believe that some of these models only save changes if there is an actual BIOS administrator.

 

Hope it helps,

David
