I recommend reviewing this thread regarding this issue.
The only fix is to send it back to HP for service. Sorry. 😞

Thanks for sharing. Unfortunately it didn't work with my Elitebook 8460p. Command was executed successfully but no change on BIOS MPM values.
Please let me know if there is anything else I could try. Thanks again.
