Hi.

3. Remove the computer cover or access panel.
4. Locate the header and jumper.
NOTE: The password jumper is green so that it can be easily identified. For assistance locating
the password jumper and other system board components, see the Illustrated Parts & Service Map
(IPSM). The IPSM can be downloaded from http://www.hp.com/support.
5. Remove the jumper from pins 1 and 2. Place the jumper on either pin 1 or 2, but not both, so that
it does not get lost.
6. Replace the computer cover or access panel.
7. Reconnect the external equipment.
8. Plug in the computer and turn on power. Allow the operating system to start. This clears the current
passwords and disables the password features.
