Welcome to the HP Support Community

 

For that model you will need to contact HP in your region and they should be able to send you a customized SMC.bin file which you can use at boot to reset the password.

 

Contact Support >> http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-contact-us.html

 

When talking to the HP rep ask them to escalate your service request.

 

Just to note:

 

Do not try removing the RTC/BIOS battery.  As it will not remove the password, but it may reset the clock and as SMC files are time coded, a large disparity between the system clock and the time encoded in the SMC may cause it to fail.

Barachiel,
Thank you for responding to help with my issue. As mentioned in my initial inquiry, I have tried these instructions and am unable to complete step 3 because neither "Power Management" NOR "change settings" are available options. I have attached screenshots. Please advise.tech support.jpg

I forget bios password

Windows 10 freezes a lot, won't turn on from sleep mode, etc.

I have some issues wth my HP Pavilion Notebook:

- Sometimes my computer fails to wake up from sleep mode (either when the computer is on and running, but the screen just stays black - or when my computer is on and it displays the lock screen, but does nothing and doesn't show the log-in window when I press the enter key)

- Sometimes it freezes and won't stop freezing; if audio is playing when the computer freezes, the audio freezes as well and turns into this buzzing noise, and I have to wait for my computer to unfreeze enough so that I can set the volume to mute (in this case I hold down the power button to turn the computer off and then restart)

- Almost every time my computer starts like normal, it seems to take a long time for the desktop to fully load

- I believe in one or two recent cases, my computer has failed to start up (again, in this case the computer is on and running, but the screen stays black and nothing happens).

 

- I have updated all of my drivers in the Device Manager just yesterday

- and I use Windows 10.

 

Help will be much appreciated. Thank you.

I see from your post that you are having issues with slow boot while USB connected to your HP notebook. Don't worry we'll work together to help you find a solution.

 

Splendid effort and fabulous description of the issue before posting. Kudos to you on that score.  You are a valued HP customer and it is paramount to assist you here. I take it as a privilege to share this platform with you. 

 

To provide you with an accurate solution, I'll need a few more details:

Have you tried to do a clean boot on your PC?

Have you tried to update the drivers either using Windows update or using HP Support Assistant.

Have you tried to update the Bios on your PC?

 

In the meantime, let's try these steps here: 

 

Try performing a clean boot on your PC and check if it helps.

 

From Start, search for msconfig.
Select System Configuration from the search results.
On the Services tab of the System Configuration dialog box, tap or click to select the Hide all Microsoft services check box, and then tap or click Disable all.
On the Startup tab of the System Configuration dialog box, tap or click Open Task Manager.
On the Startup tab in Task Manager, for each startup item, select the item and then click Disable.
Close Task Manager.
On the Startup tab of the System Configuration dialog box, tap or click OK, and then restart the computer.

 

If the issue persists, I would suggest here is to Run Windows Updates troubleshooter -

 

Download and install the troubleshooter from this link.

 

Now try to perform Windows Updates - 

 

1) In the search box, type and open Windows Updates. 
2) Check for updates. 
3) If the updates are available, click on install and restart the computer. 

 

If the issue persists, I would suggest here is to update the Bios and chipset drivers on your PC using HP Support Assistant

 

To download and install HP support assistant on your PC. It should automatically download and install the latest updates and drivers for your PC.

Refer this link to know how to use HP support assistant.

Once done, restart the computer.

How to run HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI from USB

$

Hello

 

I am having a problem to install Windows after a hard drive crash. The laptop won't boot from USB or DVD and I concluded I must update the Bios first.

 

I read that I need to use the PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI tool when windows is not booting for that, but the version on the laptop is old I think (version 1.9.0.0) and don't have the option to update the bios. (only memory test and hard drive check)

 

I concluded that I need to use an updated version of HP PC hardware diagnostics UEFI to update my bios. I downloaded the latest version at https://www8.hp.com/us/en/campaigns/hpsupportassistant/pc-diags.html and made a USB drive with it. However, when I insert the USB in the laptop, it always load the laptop hardware diagnostics tools only, not the updated one from the USB. I press Esc on boot, then F2 and the laptop old tools load always.

 

I did try with different usb ports on the laptop.

 

I did try with two usb drive, one in fat16 and the other in fat32.

 

I did try with different updated version of HP diagnostics tool (6.6.0.0 - 6.9.0.0 - 6.9.1.0).

 

Should I proceed otherwise for the bios update or must I do anything else to load the updated diagnostics tools ? Thanks

 

PS : I also did try to update the bios by putting the bios bare files on a usb drive and holding windows key + b at startup without success.
