I've got a windows 7 Pro OA HP Mini and I'm trying to bypass the "Enter Administrator Password or Power on Password" Help please? It's an old laptop my gf locked up on me.

Hi:

 

Enter any password 3 times and the PC should generate a system disabled (halt) code.

 

Enter the code you get in the box at the link below, and the website should generate an unlock passcode for you.

If it is asking for a Windows password, unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to help you with that.
