Hey Adam, if it's anything like my old hp you really have to tear it
apart because it is wayyyy buried in there. I know some old BIOSes had
backdoor passwords, you might get the version of your bios and do a
search for it. I have some password cracks for some bioses let me know
what type you have and I will send them to you if I can find the file.
