Product: Hp 6740b
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)
- I have hp laptop 6470b. But i recently noticed that i cannot access to my gpu because it is not enabled in my bios. When i checked the bios it says for password but i didnt set the password nor anyone from my family did that. It is already set from the factory. When i enter wrong password 3times it says computer locked press the power button to continue. So please send me the .bin file so that i can access to my bios
