Hi:

You will have to contact HP technical support for assistance with obtaining a SMC.bin file for your PC.

Worldwide business PC phone numbers...

You can see if the phone number listed for your country is still valid to call them.

hi,

i can only see this HP Virtual Agent which is not helping. is there a specific option that i need to do?

[Paul_Tikkanen]

Unfortunately, I wouldn't know how that works.

I don't work for or represent HP, and I live in the middle of the United States.

I would suggest you contact a local HP authorized repair shop where you live, and have them can get in touch with HP.

There must be a way to get in touch with them.

We are really not authorized to help anyone with BIOS password issues, so I have provided all of the help I can regarding this matter.
