Product: HP Compaq Presario C759LA
Operating System: Microsoft Windows Vista

My boss gave me a laptop Compaq Presario C759LA for factory restoring a few days ago, I was working on Windows and making backups, then I reboot it and it ask me a power on password. I could reboot and enter to BIOS Setup, but I couldn't reset that password if I don't know it.

 

When I enter blank password three times I get one unlock password:  The key is 93095941.

 

Is this a bug? Are there a patch fix?

 

Please help!!!!
