You're very welcome.
Unfortunately, if someone didn't put a BIOS P/W on the notebook, I don't know why it happened.
Sometimes a halt code gets set if a piece of hardware fails.
The code I gave you should have cleared the BIOS P/W, and you shouldn't need it again.
If you have to enter the code to get past the P/W screen still... see if this works...
Use the code to gain access to the PC. Go into the BIOS>security menu.
Under the password section select the enable/disable password option.
If asked for a password to get into that section, enter the unlock code I posted.
For new password, hit the enter key, and for the confirm password, hit the enter key.
Then save the settings and restart the notebook.
