Hi, im asking for my friend. Hes having issues with his notebook- managed to get his BIOS locked, and after entering 3 wrong passwords, it wont display the 8digit code for recovery "as it should". And as from i found out, this notebook doesnt have a CMOS batter, as its integraded into the main battery. We alredy tried all the possible dumbass combiantions and allat. Is there any other possible way of unlocking it? Pleassss HP he said he aint paying for another one 😞
