I have removed the laptop battery, lifted keyboard and removed CMOS battery. Left it in that state for 30 minutes with no power. Reinstalled both batteries, I still receive a prompt for password at the BIOS screen.
Please help. Service Tag CQ10-120CA CNU0073RDT
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello:
My situation is similar: there is an System Halted error when booting, that sends me back to BIOS but is locked by the password.
It's a Compaq Mini CQ10
Model: CQ10-120CA

PN: WA659UA#ABC
Thanks for your help and time,
Bob
