Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I'm having some trouble finding instructions to reset the admin code/password for an M651. I have the service code and have performed a factory reset (Administrative Settings > General Settings > Factory Reset) however this did not reset the admin password. Any help would be much appreciated.

Figured it out. Press the HP logo on the touchscreen during bootup, go into the administration menu, then boot options, then check Cold Reboot.
