System disabled - A (846FFCB1)

Hi @Alisonmg,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.  
 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

The message "HP System disabled - A (846FFCB1)" usually appears when the BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) detects that someone has entered the wrong password several times, which triggers a security feature that disables the system to prevent unauthorized access.

 

To resolve this issue, you will need to contact HP support or a qualified technician who can assist you with resetting the BIOS password or unlocking the system. They may ask you for the serial number of your HP device to verify ownership.

 

I hope this information helps. 


Take care and have a good day.
