Windows 10: Follow up for Suman B.

Well it is the BIOS update that I installed for HP Slimline 450-a24 2B28 A0.14. A mistake that I won't forget. With the help of GRC, to whom I trust. I have disable Spectre & Meltdown protection. HP advised I should go to a service center for a BIOS rollback. Which I will not try because all BIOS update from HP warns you that rollback aren't allowed. Thank you for all of your help.
