hello my laptop is an HP 455 Notebook PC and I would like to know how to access the advanced BIOS settings. My Bios is version F.02, it is not the latest version, and if to access the advanced configuration I need the latest version of the BIOS, update it. I have read in other sites that I can with a + f10 but it does not work for me. BIOS specifications:

Sorry, but 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.
