Does anyone know default bios password?

[nicovon]

I have a desktop computer. HP d530 CMT (DG747A). This morning I had to replace the bios battery. Then at first power on, the bios ran a system analysis to determine the amount of ram (see photo):

 

The problem is that I should change the date and time and oddly it is set a default password that I do not know. Does anyone know it? The bios version is v01.11

There is no default password for any HP BIOS. Those days are gone. 

There is a CMOS clear switch on the motherboard. You will need to press it to clear the BIOS password. If I remember correctly it is a bright color.

from the manual:

"

To delete the Setup password by clearing CMOS:

1.Shut down (Power down) the system and disconnect the power cord from the outlet

or the system unit.

2.Remove the chassis cover.

3.On the system board, press and release the CMOS clear switch.

4.Replace the chassis cover and reconnect the power cord."

Hi, @nicovon :

I once had four d530's.

There is a green password jumper on the motherboard.  I forgot exactly where it is located, but it is the only green one.

Usually it is located near the coin cell battery or the little yellow clear CMOS button.

To clear the BIOS P/W, shut down and unplug the PC.

Press the power button to drain any residual power.

Find and remove the green password jumper (or place it on only one of the pins if you are afraid of losing it).

Plug in and power on the PC.  The BIOS P/W will now be cleared.

Shut down, unplug the PC and press the power button to drain any residual power.

Replace the jumper over the two pins.

Put everything back together, and you're done.
