Hi,(sorry for my english)
After I messed up a bit the BIOS to install Ubuntu (I failed) when I turn the computer, pops me some white writings on black with some computer features, after a few seconds a blue rectangle appears with written in "manufacture programming mode is in unlock mode "and then affixed to appear the HP logo appears the Windows logo. I tried to use the kit Recovery Manager (the key) but appears: Recovery manager 0XFFEE01, other times appears: 0XFFEE018 followed by 0XFFEE016, I also tried to follow guides how to disable manufacture programming but they all were guides for laptops, I Tried to follow them but it does work, please help me, i don't know how do, thanks so much

Power-off the computer.
Disconnect the AC power-cord.
Disconnect the "data" and "power" cables from the disk-drive.
Connect the AC power-cord.
Power-on the computer.
It should let you enter BIOS SETUP, where you *MIGHT* be able to disable that "programming mode".
