HP Sure Start Policy Controls

Although HP Sure Start is enabled out of the box with default settings that are optimized for the typical user, HP provides policy setting within BIOS setup that may be appropriate for advanced users.

Verify Boot Block On Every Boot

Disabled (Default): When set to the default, HP Sure Start will verify the integrity of the BIOS in System Flash

each time the system is in a Sleep, Hibernate, or Off state such that assurance is provided that it has not been tampered with before the host CPU executes that code as part of the process of resuming from the low power state

Enabled: When this box is checked, the HP Sure Start will continue to verify the integrity of the BIOS in System Flash

each time the system is in a Sleep, Hibernate, or Off state. Additionally, the HP Sure Start will verify the integrity of the BIOS in System Flash on each Warm Boot (Windows Restart).

BIOS Data Recovery Policy

Automatic (Default): Any problems that are found by HP Sure Start will be automatically repaired not requiring any special actions by the local user.

Manual (For Advanced Users only): Any problems found by HP Sure Start will not be repaired automatically and will require a special key sequence input by the local user to proceed with the repair. This mode is only intended for scenarios where the machine owner would prefer to perform forensics on the system flash contents before it is repaired and is not recommended for the typical user. In the case of HP Sure Start finding an issue with

the initial BIOS code, the system will refuse to boot and flash a special LED sequence until the special key sequence is pressed on the internal keyboard.

Restore Network Controller Configuration to the factory defaults

This manual control will restore the network parameters (used by the Intel integrated network controller) stored in System Flash to their factory defaults.

Lock BIOS Version

Disabled (Default): When set to default, the BIOS can be updated using any one of the supported processes. The HP Sure Start Recovery image will also be updated by default when this setting is disabled.

Enabled: When this box is checked, All HP BIOS update tools will refuse to update the BIOS. The HP Sure Start recovery image is fixed when this setting is Enabled.
