HP Setup Utility for Notebooks

Adjusting the all-important BIOS system settings is a job for advanced users and it requires a lot of attention because of the damage that could be sustained by the PC or notebook in case of a misconfiguration.
In most cases, tinkering with these options can only be done before booting into Windows, but on some systems it is possible to carry out the configuration through a GUI application. HP Setup Utility for Notebooks is one such tool and it is mean to be used only with a select group of devices.
Designed to help users take care of some of the most important settings, this program is tailored to accommodate the needs of those who have a laptop model that is part of the Compaq Evo, HP Compaq Business or HP Compaq Mobile Workstation families. The main goal of HP Setup Utility for Notebooks is to facilitate the configuration of BIOS options from inside Windows.
Whats more, this software solution offers its users the possibility to ensure no unauthorized person can access or change the BIOS settings unless they provide the appropriate passkey. There is a condition, though, for the security related function to become effective, more precisely there has to be a BIOS administrator password set in place on the target notebook.
Another handy feature provided by HP Setup Utility for Notebooks is the possibility to transfer and apply the settings onto other systems that are also on the list of supported models for this application.
