HP Recommended
Product: Elitebook 820 G3
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi all,

 

I would like to inquiry regarding with hp security policy. I purchased HP Elitebook 820 G3 last over 1 year ago with 3 years warranty. I used power on authentication option since I purchased. I used both bios administrator password and user login password at power on auth. Last time I cannot login even I type correctly after migrate my laptop from windows 7 to windows 10. When I search in this community, I found the solution that is can reset with  ".bin" file which can get if I give my information. So I send email to related person from HP and he reply "Only change motherboard option" is solution for me and he also reply "Bios password is not recommend to setup" . So I went to Service Center and solution is same. I am not complaining  about my mistake (but it's not actually), I just want to know is 

 

REALLY HP NOT RECOMMEND  TO SET BIOS PASSWORD in their products? 

AND
MOTHERBOARD REPLACEMENT is only option for this issue? 

 

Thanks for your time
