Hold down the power button for 10 seconds to shutdown the notebook.
Start the notebook and at the password prompt type in the unlock code 62986861 and then hit enter.
That is the correct code for the halt you've posted - if it doesn't work, your only option would be to contact HP Support starting on the link below.

Hi,
In that case, double-check the 'System Disabled' code you posted and the whether the prefix to the code is I or i.

You're welcome 
Regarding the susequent issue, if you normally sign-on with an email and password, see if you can reset the password via another PC from the Microsoft page on the following link.
https://account.live.com/password/reset
Additionally, it's worth checking that keyboard layout hasn't been inadvertently changed - at the lock screen, click the 'Ease of Access' icon in the bottom right, select the On Screen keyboard and try logging in using this.
Otherwise, there is a general policy on the Forum not to provide methods to bypass Windows log-on passwords, however a local computer shop would be able to do this for you.
Another option, if all your personal data etc is backed-up, would be to reset the notebook to its 'Factory Condition' and then set it up from the beginning – if you don’t have your Recovery Media, the notebook will have shipped with a Recovery Partition which can be accessed at boot - ie shutdown the notebook, then start tapping away at f11 as soon as you power on.
A full guide on this can be found on the following link.
