My son forgot his password to get into the laptop and now it's asking for the administrator password or power on password. Assistance needed to reboot all settings.
Thank you.

Sorry, we are no longer able to provide any assistance with password reset or recovery issues.
Also please note that now, to resolve a forgotten BIOS password issue, a system board replacement is required -- and additional customer costs apply.

For assistance NOW, you have to contact your regional HP Customer Support location directly as they will confirm ownership of the PC before providing any assistance -- something we are not able to do from here.
