When i turned on my laptop yesterday, i got the message 'please wait, system update....'. After letting it sit to do its thing, i came back to my machine and i had the blue box with the Enter Admin Password or Power On Pass. I was able to get past the screen by using a password from bios-pw.org, however, my laptop still shows to be doing the system update. This has been running for a while now and doesn't seem to be doing anything. How do i get past this?
