Product: hp 250 g6
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I've discovered a laptop at work which has a BIOS password. I've tried to reset it via taking out the CMOS battery but no luck.

 

I've also looked up a reset code for i 87202434 but unfortunately this does not work either.

 

Please help!

Welcome to the HP Support Community  @JayanthDalmeida 

 

Yes it works great until it asks for the BIOS password.

 

If you do not know the password it will not flash the BIOS.

 

ONLY works on a BIOS with no password.
