@erico I've tried your method on an HP Compaq dx6100. it did not work. The "bios" has been reset, but the password is still present. Sure there is no default password?

No problem. Actually your PC appears to be listed in HP Compaq Business desktop PCs. So I incorrectly identified it as a Consumer PC
According to a manual for your PC there is a jumper setting that can remove the power on and BIOS setup passwords.

This thread is about an older business PC. Yours is a consumer PC. The information provided to the original poster does not apply to your PC model because the motherboard is different.
