Please refer the following weblink that has steps to remove the BIOS password:

http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/HP-Pavilion-p7-Desktop-PC-series/5330777/model/5331427/document/...

 

You have to look at the clear CMOS diagram and the clear password diagram together, as it were.

 

The left side (pins 2, 4, & 6) is the CMOS side, and you leave that jumper alone (leave it on pins 4 & 6).

 

You want to move the jumper pictured on the right side of the diagram to clear the password.

 

You remove it from pins 5 & 3, and place it on pins 1 & 3.
