go to the settings and under power you should be able to select performance mode.

That is strange
Can you run this command to see the powerprofiles powerprofilesctl list
Than run powerprofilesctl performance.
If that does not work can you pleas share your config (maybe you have some powersaving options that interfere)

So it seems that your laptop bios is not supporting the platforms

Where is Performance mode?

But to be sure what laptop do you use?
