After rebooting my system I now come to a screen to enter system password. Only thing is.. I never set this and there is no way around it.
I have tried the take battery out reset CMOS trick that used to work in desktops to no avail.
this is the message I get after too many password attempts.
system disable key 92931076

Use that code to go into the BIOS.
Disable all passwords that are enabled.
If asked for the CURRENT password use that code.
If asked for NEW password just hit enter.
If asked to VERIFY password just hit enter.
Save and exit.
