Pavilion 15-cx0048ur
Linux

For my Linux image, I need to disable Hyper-Threading Technology. This can be done in the advanced tab in BIOS, but this laptop does not have it by default. How can I open it? The internet recommends pressing F10 + A while booting, but it doesn't work.

There is no advanced tab in the BIOS.

I opened the BIOS image and found that it contains all the options and the Advanced tab, but this tab is hidden. All bios parametrs.csv (Google Drive link)

The advanced settings are not accessible to end users...not much different than if they did not exist. Not my design. I do not work for HP. They have absolutely no concern about whether you can run a virtual Linux machine on their laptop. Sorry to say.

I am still waiting for a normal response. Why, when I bought a laptop, I have to suffer because someone came up with the idea to block the BIOS. Even if I wind up something in this BIOS and break the laptop, it's my laptop, I paid for it, the warranty has also passed, there can be no question of any warranty repair if the laptop model is 4 years old.
