I just bought a used motherboard from a guy that I’m not able to contact anymore, I stuck it in a machine but when I opened the bios settings to set the boot drive there’s an admin password. Is there any way to reset the admin password?

Unfortunately, for problem with passwords you will need to contact an HP agent.
