pavilion dv7
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I am trying to restore my HP notebook Pavilion Dv7 hope you can help me, is the same problem that other persons in this post.  When I power it up, before it loads anything including bios it asks for a password.  I do not have the password.  After three attempts It locks and gives me this key number:  51314762.  As the other I am assuming this is a code HP can use to help me reset the password?  Thanks for any help.
