Product: HP Compaq 8200 Elite Base Model Ultra-slim PC
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
Hello.
I have some HP Compaq 8200 and the other day I wanted to set a password in BIOS for security. But in some computers when I went to put the password and I save the options, the password won't keep up. But If I change other settings in the bios it saved.
I tried change CMOS, restore default settings, use short password like 1234, abcd,a9n8, etc but nothing work.
Someone know what can I do?
Thanks.
