Hello! I updated the bios of my PC, and now it asks form an administrator or power on password. The problem is that my current password that I had for the bios is incorrect? I am 100% sure of my password, because I literally used it before updating the bios. After entering the password 3 times, it asks for an hp usb recovery thing? But I dont have it, nor I even know what it is. Finally, if I press enter again 3 times, it says that the answers to the questions were incorrect, But I havent set up any questions beforehand. Last thing that I noticed is that the keyboard colours were different. All solutions that i tried are windows + B, windows + V, using all passwords that I had (But still, I know my password and it appears incorrect)
Thanks in advance!
