HP Recommended
Eliteboot 840 G8
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Whenever I turn on my laptop I receive a notification:

"A REQUEST HAS BEEN MADE TO CHANGE THE SYSTEM'S SECURE BOOT CONFIGURATION WHICH MAY AFFECT THE SECURE BOOT KEYS AND/OR MAY DISABLE SECURE BOOT

PLEASE TYPE IN AND ENTER THE BELOW NUMBER FOR AUTHORIZATION

{RANDOM NUMBER}"

Whether I  enter the random number or not it still restarts a second or less after pressing Enter.  If I press ESC pre or post notification it shows "Entering BIOS" at the bottom left of the screen but it doesn't enter the BIOS Menu.   I can confirm this is most likely not a hardware issue since the laptop is less then 2 weeks old and I had run a full diagnostic on it about an hour prior to getting stuck in the loop and all results showed passing.
