I'm trying to figure out what is causing my games to crash after a few minutes of playing. Searched if people had the same problem and seeing something about XMP of the ram that can be changed in the BIOS setup. I restart the PC and press F10 to get to the BIOS but it's asking for administrator password and I never set one up. I tried different passwords three times and took me to HP Sparekey Recovery... another thing I never set up. I just need help getting into my BIOS.

I just want to get into my BIOS so I can see if the ram is being the problem... If not then I will be back to set up another help request because this is stumping me.
