Another option is to try to force the machine to give you a backdoor password.

1) Start by removing the battery and connect the computer directly to the power source.

2) When the computer prompts for the password, take a few guesses. At some point, it will give a message of "System Disabled" and a code, that can be made up of number, letter or both. Write it down on a piece of paper. Be very careful to correctly read the code: do not mistake a letter for a number or vice-verse.

Do not worry about the "System disabled" message: this is a scare tactic. Pull the plug on the computer, give it a minute to "breathe" without any power coursing through its circuits and then reconnect the power cable. It will run.

3) Go to this site: https://bios-pw.org/#

This is not malware. This site was created using reverse engineering to create a tool to generate passwords to unlock machines like your. Insert the code you wrote down and get a password. Write it down and insert it on the locked computer. Hopefully, you'll get in.

Next step is to go into the BIOS and disable the thing!
