HP Elitebook 8560p
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi,

 

I just purchased a laptop from a liquidation site here in my country. It is an Elitebook 8560p that has ATI dedicated graphics. 

The problem is the bios has these accounts which may have came from the company that sold the laptop. These accounts have passwords including the Administrator. That being said, I cannot access the bios settings because I do not know the password to enter the bios. 

 

I read that I need an SMC.bin file but I couldn't get it from HP because they said the product is already out of warranty since 2014. 

 

Can someone help me reset the bios without having to replace the bios chip?

 

Thanks
