I'm sorry but it's not possible to reset the BIOS password. It's a permanent security measure. Usually the only way to remove it is by replacing the motherboard. I recommend calling HP customer service at 1 (800) 474-6836. You might be able to set up an RMA and send it to an authorized service center.
