My laptop is giving me an error saying 'enter administation or power on password'. I dont know what that password is. My first thought is that its a bios erorr. So i tried reflashing the bios with a newer updated version for my specific laptop make and model. The BIOS reflashed and updated succesfully, but it still gave me the error after logging back in. Next i tried replacing my m.2 ssd thinking maybe the password is stored in there. Didnt work. Then i replaced the actual computer battery thinking the password/erorr was stored in the battery. That didnt work. [Content Removed]
