Welcome to HP Forums @safrangroup,

 

Thanks for the post. 

 

I understand that you are looking to reset the BIOS password for your computer. 

Not to worry, I will be glad to assist you.

Have you contacted hp phone support?

 

To reset the BIOS password you would have to contact HP phone support for a hardware service as the motherboard may require a tattoo/Bios Flash.

Any other way of unlocking the BIOS is not authorized by HP.

 

Keep me posted.
