Hp Bios Unlock Advanced Settings

[Shinyoung Gedris]

Nowoutside of said Boot Menu, I can view system logs, but alas when I hit enter it only shows me a list of logs by log ID number, no information other than the Log number are viewable. I can also change TPM settings and revert, revert or load previous BIOS settings, enable or disable virtual OS support, battery time remaining, fan always on.

As far as any other settings that you'd typically find in BIOS, I have nothing else ... is this normal for the latest Insyde F.40 BIOS? Or, as I've seen on various forums and YouTube channels, is there a way to load Advanced Settings by using a pre-BIOS or pre-BOOT or otherwise hidden shortcut/key-combo??

No. While your answer was comprehensive and extensive, it does not apply to the (possibly hidden) Advanced Settings options, if there are any. Thank you for trying to help, all the same. If there's hidden Advanced Settings, then it's likely you'd be aware of such a thing. I'll keep researching as well and post an update should I find a conclusive answer, as this seems to be widely discussed and debated. Many people claim that the Advanced Settings only shows when the user performs a certain key-combination, typically described as holding shift and hitting ESC multiple times, or F9 multiple times, before hitting F10 and then the supposed Advanced Settings just appears out of nowhere. If I find this is true, however, and no HP representative will even discuss the matter let alone provide support or any relative information WITHOUT me paying out of pocket first for a Support option (for a simple question regarding a laptop that is at least 4 years old, then it's the last straw with HP and having any sort of information withheld for payment to be admitted will be the subject of a lengthily complaint with non-HP Consumer Protections. The other night I had upgraded to Windows 11 and needed my drivers, which I normally obtain from HPs website. However this particular day those drivers wouldn't show. I would select my device and then my OS and then be taken to a page that said there are no drivers for the device model I provided. I've obtained these drivers many times over before without incident so I called HP to ask if the drivers were no longer available or archived due to the age of the laptop. I was given one option/answer...pay up and we will discuss your question but no comment, advice, input or support of any kind was given. This led me to believe the drivers were no longer provided; luckily AMD knows how to run a corporation and support tier so I just skipped the middle man aka HP and went straight to AMD for not only the chipset and video drivers but also an AMD application that came with the package that enabled me to view and modify graphics options that i NEVER HAD ANY IDEA EXISTED BEFORE, thanks to HP extracting the drivers into their own package. My games run better than ever!

Needless to say I refused to give any money and the representative wouldn't help or even just tell me if the drivers would ever be available again. THANKFULLY, I was absolutely right to refuse because the very next evening I checked again and what do you know, the drivers were there again; they had simply been updated. HP wouldn't even open a support article or discuss or even hypothesize an answer, all they wanted was CREDIT CARD CREDIT CARD CREDIT CARD. You'd think I called a scammer in India...and in many ways I did...call a scammer that is-they just also happened to be the person I reached when calling HPs Support number listed on their website...maybe they're not in India but scammer all the same.

I was finally able to access advanced settings after hours of t/s, if you have a 15-series laptop, especially the 15-af/15-db00xx, (may work for others, haven't tried) here's what HP is crookedly and DISGUSTINGLY TRYING TO KEEP FROM YOU,

After 4 years of owning my device and using various patches and programmers of my own, I suddenly see an Advanced Settings tab AS WELL AS a new Power tab, next to the last tab, which includes such items as:

Hi, How can I access advanced system settings in bios. I wanted to decrease the hardware reserved memory, I wanted to do so because my Hardware reserved memory is 2.1 GB and of that the 2 gb belongs to my integrated gpu however I have a dedicated Nvidia gpu so I dont need that much of memory on my integrated one and yes, my cpu is Ryzen 5 3550h and the integrated gpu is Radeon Vega 8 graphics. You may also refer to the attached file, Thank You.

If you really need to access the Advanced tab in the BIOS then Boot up your computer and then press the F10 key to get into BIOS. Then quickly press the A key to show the Advanced settings. In the BIOS, press Fn+Tab 3 times.

If you find the Advanced settings tab missing in the BIOS, that is because your manufacturer has locked the settings on your computer as the improper use of the Advanced settings in BIOS could damage your computer, and in most cases, there is no way to unlock it.

According to the 14" model's Arch page that laptop does have a hidden/advanced bios options allowing it to enable S3 sleep and more.

Someone found that when pressing Fn+R,Fn+N and then booting the system power button blinks 10 times and then boots like normal. Is there something hidden behing this that anyone knows about that would enable acces to the advanced bios in this model?

Currently

I own the same laptop. The FN + R key combo is related to the bios recovery (AKA "Crisis") mode in case you brick your bios.

Yes, the wiki does say so, but Lenovo has completely removed their advanced settings menu in the newer versions of the bios.

I have tried downgrading, which also bricked my laptop once because of a faulty bios they have published.

However, now I have found a way to enable S3.

It's hacky so do it at your own risk. Although, I already took the risk for you and tried it myself

I am on bios version 33 which I think is the latest.

If running windows as dual boot it needs to be reinstalled after changing sleep modes, because it breaks it's sleep.

Now this is where I ask for your help:

It looks like it succeeded, because windows shits itself, however I'm not sure how to enable it on linux because of my inexperience.

Because "cat /sys/power/mem_sleep" still shows s2idle for me on Fedora.

EDIT:

Well after further research it looks like it did not work? I guess even the S3 setting on the bios isn't working. Thanks Lenovo. I wonder if the wiki authors can confirm the setting is working.

This is confusing to me because there's no reason why Windows sleep would break then lol.

Hope you can try it yourself, because this is very annoying. Ill try patching the DSDT later. Dmesg returns only s0 s4 s5 support even after enabling S3...

Also, a little off topic - but does your cpu go above C3 state on this laptop? Because powertop reports C3 as max state, which isn't ideal and there's more power savings to be had. Although it was also the same on windows, so I'm not really sure.

In software development projects for embedded systems, there is quitecommonly the need to create a single project that builds relatedversions of the application for different target hardware/memoryconfigurations, with different build options, etc. In large-scaleprojects, there is also the need to organize files in a structure thatis easily navigated and maintained by multiple team members.

After it launches, the CCS Editperspective will be visible bydefault. This perspective contains views most commonly used during codedevelopment, such as the Project Explorer, Editor and Problems view.

Workspaces are user specific, hence typically not checked into sourcecontrol or shared between users. Instead, projects are checked intosource control and each user would have their own workspace thatreferences the projects.

Projects typically contain files and folders. Similar to the workspace,a project maps to a physical folder in the file system. When a newproject is created, its default location is in a subfolder (of theproject name) within the workspace folder. However you can also choose afolder outside the workspace.

Once the project is created, a reference to it will be made in theworkspace and the project will be visible and available for use from theProject Explorer view. Each project in the workspace must have aunique name.

The Project Explorer view displays all projects that are part of theactive workspace. The view is mostly a representation of the file systemof the project folder. When you create a subfolder and move files tothat subfolder from within the Project Explorer view, the actualfilesystem is being altered. Similarly, changes made to the filesystemwill be reflected in the Project Explorer view.

Code Composer Studio supports a few different types of projects. Theproject type can be specified when creating a new project. The projecttype will determine the toolchain and settings that the build interfacewill use and display.

When you link a file/folder to a project, the project will create areference to the file/folder in the file system instead of copying itinto the project directory. Linked files appear in the CCS ProjectExplorer view with a special icon as shown below.

If you choose Link to files, the files will be linked. You can setthe link location to be either an absolute path or a path relative to apath variable. Forprojects that will be shared among multiple users, use relative linkpaths as described in the PortableProjects page.

If you find that the Link to files is not working as expected (for example, the file does not appear in the Project Explorer view after the selection), check that your Drag and Drop Settings has Enable linked resources enabled.
