How can i enable advanced bios settings for my laptop

[Ionasu]

Hello,

I have a HP pavilion 14 ce3017nq with nvidia  GeForce mx250 4 gb and i recently purchased a Dell 24 inch p2419h monitor for photo editing. The problem is, since i can only connect to it through hdmi cable, the monitor colors are washed out. I searched the internet and it seems that this problem is caused by output dynamic range that is set to limited instead of full. Unfortunately when i open Nvidia control panel to change this setting, i only have 3d settings enabled and not display options as well. From what i read, i can only enable this through bios advanced settings by choosing discrete graphics card but since HP has disabled advanced bios settings i can't even do that. Is there a way to enable advanced bios settings (besides pressing f10 + a and other shortcut keys that didn't work for me), or at least another way to enable display options in Nvidia control panel so i can change the output dynamic range to full?

Simply put -- you can't!

Sorry, but apart from business notebooks and some high-end gaming PCs, accessing Advanced BIOS option on HP PCs is not possible.

Some OEMs lock out the advanced BIOS options to prevent customers from making changes to options that can destabilize or otherwise damage the PC -- and then send it back for repair under warranty claiming they did nothing to it.

I know only SOME of the advanced options are risky, but it's simpler to disable access to ALL advanced options than to allow/disallow on an individual option basis.

That's the course of action that HP has chosen. No one from here is going to provide you any means of getting around that.

It's horrible.
This is why I will take and return the HP laptop back to the store.
