I was wondering that if I upgrade the computer's processor to an AMD A10-4600M (upgrade from AMD A8-4500M), will the BIOS (Insyde F.26) accept it?

Yes that processor is listed in the Manual and will work:

 

AMD® A10-4600M processor (3.2 GHz/2.3 GHz, 1600 MHz/4 MB L2 cache, DDR3, quad core, 35W)

Thank you so much, that was really helpful. Am I right in saying that the BIOS Insude F.26 will accept it too?

Yes the BIOS supports any of the listed processors. Still, just for good measure, it is not a bad idea to update the BIOS to the latest (not sure if F.26 is the latest-but can check for you) before a processor update, but not technically absolutely needed.

Just checked. BIOS F.26 is still the latest version. (forum.notebookreview.com/threads/current-hp-pavilion-bios-releases.595505/)
