Hi,
If you check the below forum link, they have mentioned that for this laptop you cannot reset the BIOS password.

If you are unable to logon due to BIOS password, mention the code which pops up after entering the password incorrectly 3 times where i can try getting a code for the same.

ESATA & Bios on Elitebook 8530w

HP Elitebook 8530w (GW680AV)
Windows 7 Ult 64bit
OS installed on 2 x internal drives via Raid0
I'm having a very frustrating time with eSATA!
1st off I hadthe built in eSATA interfcae working well with a single eSATA external drive, I often find it pays to initially install external drives via USB and then switch over to the eSATA cable.
2nd I bought a Dual SATA 2.5in enclosure which has a built in Raid facility with both USB & eSATA interface (Startech.com S252U2ERR) works very well via USB but when connected via my laptops built in eSATA interface the RAID0 setup gave lots of problems, It couldn't cope with large file transfers (approx 3Gb files) It would start off ok indicating >100Mbs but would very quickly reduce to <2Mbs worse than USB
Via USB the same transfer would continue without problem at normal USB2 speeds
I never had this problem with my single eSATA external drive (no raid) but then transfer speeds were lower
Its almost as if the built in eSATA interface on the laptop falls over when the transfer gets too fast!
I've updated all the drivers via HP and when this didn't work I updated all drivers via the Intel website (Intel storage drivers)
and installed 'Intel Rapid Storage Technology' But still doesn't play ball
3rd I bought a 2 port eSATA express card adapter from Addonics, installing this gave some grief I saw a good number of blue screens!! but I'm now good after installing the Port Multiplier Compatible Driver option, And with the StarTech Raid0 external Drive it works very well and gives some impressive transfer speeds. But still I've got to be careful when connecting and removing.
4th I also did a BIOS upgrade to see if it would help, and discovered that the default setting for the built-in eSATA interface in the Bios was 'Disabled' !!!! This caused me a lot of grief but luckily I checked. Regardless it still didn't help.
So for HiSpeed Transfer rates my only solution is the additional eSATA ExpressCard and not the built in eSATA interface
So still not sure where the issue lies, Intel or HP?

Lost BIOS password of Elitebook 8530w

I lost / forgot my bios password and have tried every possible combination without result. Is there any method of recovering or resetting the password?
Before I lost my password I was using the fingerprint authentication, but this was removed after reinstalling windows7.
My model is the Elitebook 8530w
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Have you installed the AuthenTec fingerprint driver and your Protect Tools Security software?

HP Probook/Elitebook BIOS Password Reset [Utility]

So a few months back, I got an HP Core i7 Probook 6550b from my dad (that he picked up 2nd hand). It had a busted display though. Upon repair, it was found to be BIOS Password protected. And thus began my quest to reset the protection. Long story short here, I did what I set out to do. I was able to reset the TPM, and clear the password. Along the way, I have applied my technique to a few other models and have confirmed successful TPM reset. I now have a self contained utility to generate "keys" based on your specific serial number and uuid. The Key is unit specific. The keys are DOS executable , and will clear the TPM.
Confirmed List of models are:
Probook 6550b
ProBook 6460b
EliteBook 2560p
EliteBook 2740p
EliteBook 8440p
EliteBook8640p
I am confident that my system will be successful on these listed models as well.
HP 2230s
HP 2730p
HP 4310s
HP 4510s
HP 6455p
HP 6535b
HP 6545b
HP 6730b
HP 6735b
HP 6930p
HP 8530p
HP 8530w
HP 8540w
HP 8560p
HP 8730w
I sugguest anyone who has one of these models to give it a shot and help the comunity by building up the confirmed list as well as helping yourself by solving your issue. Look at my youtube video [link removed by moderator](no scam, no spam, download link in description) read the comments...I help people.

I forgot my bios hp elitebook 8440p passwordi was wondering if someone here could help me

ok so i forgot my bios hp elitebook 8440p
if someone can help that will be really appreciate
thanks

Hi:
Your notebook uses the HP Sparekey method of password recovery. You were supposed to answer 3 questions so that you could remember your password in the event you forgot it. Also, you could have enrolled your password with HP and if you lost it you could get it from HP customer support if you provided proof of ownership.
If you just set a password and did not enroll in HP Sparekey or answer the 3 security questions you will not be able to enter the BIOS. If that was a power on password, your notebook is only good for parts (except the motherboard).
There is no way to reset it by removing batteries or whatever.

There are no master password generators for ProBooks or EliteBooks and most business class laptops.
If you can boot and still access a Windows OS try this first.
1. Contact HP.

Mazzif’s program will detect your UUID, Serial Number and model number then use that information to produce an .exe file to clear the password.
If you find it to be too technical then.
3. Replace the BIOS chip.

If you have good soldering skills order the BIOS chip. You will receive a picture of the chips location after purchase.

How to remove BIOS password on Elitebook 8770w?

Hello!I want to update BIOS on my Elitebook 8770w . However, the computer was locked withadministration password for BIOS and i could not remember this password. So can someone please help me to remove this password or anyway to update BIOS without it?

Dear Customer, Welcome to HP Support Forum and we are glad to assist you. This is to inform you that all HP Business Notebooks such as Probooks or Elitebooks have more stringent security than consumer models infact they don't produce 'halt codes', the password cannot be derived from the Serial Number and the code is stored in non-volatile memory so removing the RTC cell will not reset the password in this case. Please have a look at this link. http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/49497-HP-Probook-Elitebook-BIOS-Password-Reset-Utility Please Contact HP Business Notebook support they should be able to send you a customized SMC.bin file which you can use at boot to reset the password. Hope this helps, for any further queries reply to the post and feel free to join us again

EliteBook 2530p BIOS Password Failures

My company has purchased 30 or so HP EliteBook 2530p notebooks. We set the BIOS password on every machine. Now, out of 30 or so machines we are unable to get into the BIOS on at least 6 machines. We know the passwords and they have not yet left our lab for deployment to the users. I've been searching for a known BIOS bug but haven't found anything online that I'd call solid. When I contacted HP they had me try all the standard BIOS reset procedures and none of them resulted in the password being reset or able to be accessed. I was instructed to send the machines off to HP so they can replace the mobos. Since they were so willing to do that I assume it's a known issue.
Has anyone else encountered this? Before I gather up these notebooks and either take them to a local HP contractor or send them to HP is there anything other than popping out the batteries and letting the BIOS reset to attempt to reset the password?
Thanks!

Have a look at this article. Helped me. http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?objectID=c01798858&dimid=1137549722&di...
