As the title says, I tried updating bios but I don't have acces to the password so I tried removing the CMOS battery from an HP 8470p Laptop, left it out 10 minutes and kept pressing ocassionaly power button to drain the current. After I restarted it prompted same message that it requires password. I heard that old laptops store bios information on the chip so it doesn't work by removing the cmos.
