Hello babygirlakin,

I am from Dell Social Media and Community.

Unfortunately, there is no option to bypass the HDD password. I would recommend you to contact out technical support team for your region (WWW.Dell.com/Contacts) to get a master password for your system to resolve this issue.

If this has not helped you or if you need any further assistance, feel free to message me on Twitter. I will be happy to assist.
