Can the bios of this machine be modded to accept newer CPU like ryzen 5000? or even just 3400ge
seems officially it doesn't support anything over 2400G.

since it has AM4 socket, I was hoping.  Tongue

if mod is possible I can send a bios dump in PM
Post a screenshot of Mainboard tab of CPU-Z.
Explain exactly what happens when you try to boot with new CPU.

the only CPU I have on hand I could probably try with is a 5600g.

other posts on HP forums and others forums asking about CPU upgrades on this PC simply says trying any CPU that isn't on the support list results in no boot at all. no picture. (like here)
supported list can be found here https://support.hp.com/rs-en/document/c06060556 it's only 4 or 5 cpus.

I can attempt the 5600g when I get home from work today.
