    You may have to disconnect the tiny battery on the motherboard; would require you to disassemble the laptop to get to it. Disconnecting the battery for a good 1-2minutes and reconnecting it usually resets the BIOS password.

    Hello @Sark0055 , welcome to NBR and sorry to hear about your issue.
    For security reasons, we, unfortunately, don't allow such topics on this forum.

    NBR forum rules

    To save you some time, removing the CMOS battery WON'T clear your BIOS password.
