1 Abstract

HP redesigned the 2015 and later generations of BIOS to support the requirements of the latest microprocessors and

operating systems. HP took this opportunity to create a new BIOS architecture based on the UEFI specification version 2.4,

with a common set of core modules and capable of supporting both notebook and desktop models. Now HP notebooks and

HP desktops models using this generation of the BIOS will have a similar look and feel for the (F10) setup menu, more

shared WMI strings, and more shared features.
