    Was this used or refurbished? It sounds like someone set a supervisor password (SVP). This password cannot be cleared by normal means, even if you remove the CMOS battery. Assuming it is a SVP, if you bought this new or factory refurbished, try contacting Lenovo to get them to exchange it for another one.

    Read the documentation here: http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/ht036206
