Thanks for your port and welcome to HP Forum

 

Since keyboard is working fine in bios mode it cannot be hardware issue

***Mouse usually does not work in Bios mode***

 

kindly perform system restore through F11 

If you are not getting any options in F11 , kindly take data back up and reinstall operating system

I understand that you are facing a concern with keyboard not working in BIOS.

As keyboard working in BIOS mode and not working in windows mode.

I would suggest you to take data backup and reinstall OS.
