Hello,

I need help accessing the Advanced BIOS settings on my HP OMEN desktop.

System info:

 

 
Product: OMEN by HP Obelisk Desktop 875-0xxx
Product/SKU: 4NM65AA#ABA
System Board ID: 84FD
BIOS Revision: F.35
BIOS Date: 12/19/2023
CPU: Intel Core i7-8700
RAM: 16 GB
Operating System: Windows 11

In the F10 BIOS menu, I only see these tabs:

Main
Security
Configuration
Boot Options
Exit

I do not see any Advanced, Chipset, Power, CPU Configuration, Performance, or Overclocking tab.

I used the official HP BIOS Configuration Utility to export my BIOS settings. The export shows settings such as:

Fast Boot
Runtime Power Management
Idle Power Savings
SATA Power Management

However, these settings do not appear in my normal BIOS menu. When I tried changing them with HP BCU using Command Prompt, it returned Access Denied.

I also tried common key combinations such as Esc → F10, F9 → F10, A + F10, Ctrl + F1, Fn + Tab inside BIOS, Shift + F10, and Ctrl + F10, but none of them showed an Advanced BIOS tab.

Is there any official HP-supported way to access the Advanced BIOS settings on this OMEN Obelisk model with System Board ID 84FD? If these settings are intentionally locked, can HP confirm they are read-only and cannot be changed by the user?

Thank you.
