Power on Password

[Kyle Eagles]

I went to reset the power on password, but it still comes up that it is set, but my old password does not work. How do I fix this?

Hi,

Remove the RTC battery in the system board and do a power cycle.

It should help you

Is the system board the same as the Mother Board? Where is the RTC battery located on the System Board? And how do I do a power cycle?

The password is on my laptop, a HP Pavillion zd 8210.
