Can someone please help me figure out what my BIOS admin password is?  I'm not trying to bypass or subvert any security measures.  I need access to the BIOS to set boot.options so I can install WIN10 from a bootable USB drive.  O received this notebook with NO OS installed and I'm just trying to get it running.  I have seen other posts on here where the person was instructed to hit enter three times and provide a code that comes up to help with this, can this be done for this as well?  I already HAVE that code if so.  I somehow much have misworded my first inquiry as it was immediately locked down.  Please and thank you for any help!
