    I am able to enter bios settings and boot my computer without any problems -- using the finger print scanner.

    The supervisor password and poweron password has been long forgotten. I only recently realized I forgot the password when I tried to register the fingers of my family member to use the computer.

    Their finger prints can be registered but they need a power-on password to boot the power-on password.

    The question is:

    how to reset/find Power-on and Supervisor Passoword if I am able to enter bios and boot the computer?

    We do not allow discussion pertaining to bypassing passwords here. The prescribed solution is to replace the board.
