Windows 10: HP envy boots to bios on startup

My laptop HP Envy recently began to boot to Bios on startup. My drivers are up to date and have made no hardware or software changes. I don't see a failed update. When it boots to bios it will not initially let me access the menu only has a box with save changes yes no. It also initially had one long obnoxious continuous. Now it has successive short beeps that don't stop. If I hit the esc button repeatedly it evenually will let me access the menu to exit. I looked up bios beeps and none match. I also tried to get into my bios by using the esc key and going to bios from there but the f10 but

HP Envy 15-j101ex - Windows 10 Pro x64 - HyperV - startup Freeze

I have an HP Envy 15-j101ex laptop. It is running Windows 10 Pro 64 bit. It has the latest BIOS from HP: Insyde F.65

I need to turn ON Hyper-V (hyper-V Hypervisor) to create some virtual machines. So I have added the Windows Features (turned on in Control Panel Add Windows Features): Hyper-V Platform and Hyper-V Management Tools.

For the Hyper-V Hypervisor to work, Hardware Assisted Virtualization needs to be turned ON in the BIOS. The laptop does support Hardware Assisted Virtualization. But when "Virtualization Technology" is enabled in the BIOS (with UEFI enabled), this ends in a boot freeze with the rotating circle (under the HP logo) and the laptop never starts up. Virtualization Technology has to be turned OFF or the laptop will not boot up.

I have checked the Microsoft site and ran the tools suggested: coreinfo.exe, SLAT status check, DEP checked. Everything on the laptop is as expected in the requirements for Hyper-V.

Any suggested fixes?

Note: I have seen suggestions to disable Bluetooth and uninstall the driver. But if I uninstall Bluetooth drivers, Windows automatically reinstalls the Bluetooth drivers after a restart. And if the BT device is just disabled in device manager (without drivers uninstall), the problem (failed boot) still occurs.

BIOS Password Recovery For HP Envy

First why did I am asking this here :

I called HP support and they said if I want to reset my BIOS password then I want to go a service center and they need to replace bios chip and motherboard ( i have no idea why ) .. this is why I am asking here for any insights.

My laptop is HP ENVY - 17-ae108ca and I did set a BIOS admin password ( i regret now ) and unfortunately I forgot that. This laptop is just two weeks old and I did install centos in that now everything works fine but the problem is every time I need to boot priority menu and change to centos to boot to centos otherwise it will boot direct to windows.

So is there anyway I can reset the bios password ? I tried multiple times with wrong password and I got this message
