Hp Chromebook cant access SeaBios, Just emits two short beeps

[Richard Hickson]

So, I've been trying to download windows 10, and in the guide it says to access the seabios, and when I press control L in the developer screen, it just has two beeps.

Help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Richard

which HP Chromebook are you using exactly ?  go into the "About ChromeOS" page and post the settings here.

Fortunately, you have the newer HP Chromebook 14, unfortunately, it doesn't have the SeaBIOS features.

The older HP Chromebook 14 (Falco) had the Haswell Celeron cpu and came with SeaBIOS.

The newer HP Chromebook 14 (Blaze) has the Nvidia Tegra K1 ARM cpu and doesn't come with it.

I like to refer to these sites for info. about the different devices:

• ArchLinux Chrome OS devices/Chromebook
