    HP 820 G3 Absolute Persistence Module

    Hi, It's been a while since I've messed with this laptop so my memory may not be 100% correct,

    Current Absolute settings are listed bellow.

    "Absolute Persistence Module Current State
    Activation Status: Inactive
    Absolute Persistence Module Permanent Disable: No"

    I would like to be ride of the Absolute all together if possible or at least be able to change " Permanent Disable to "Yes". Am I correct in thinking that "Permanent Disable No" means that it can be activated remotely at any time?

    In my first attempt I believe I flashed both the Winbound 25Q128FVPQ that's located next to the memory slots and also the 25Q64FVIQ that's located around the same area but on the under side of the board.

    Every time I would boot after flashing the system would inter a bios recovery mode and automatically reload the original bios, any idea what I was doing wrong? Or if it's even possible to do with a bios flash? Thanks.

    I've brought this laptop of gumtree it was sold under 'spare or parts' the only issue with the laptop was it tends to heat up after 2-3 hours and decrease in performance.

I couldn't enter bios or boot windows at all. so I removed the hdd and reinstalled windows again and the message is...

    by Mr.Ultimate
    Hi, I have Dell precision 5540 laptop from old workplace,decommissioned old stock. its a good spec laptop i9-9880H etc, so I decided to keep it and use it for personal purposes.

The laptop status is clean, absolute has no any warnings or messages booting pre-bios pre-OS or post booting, while using laptop, im just not feeling safe having absolute permanently enabled having backdoor on a bios level enabled to my...
