I created one password for it bt it says incorrect..so i want to reset it
SOURCE: forgot password
how to reset or clear the BIOS password is to physically remove the power from the computer by disconnecting the power plug and then removing the Cmos battery for 30 minutes from the motherboard some motherboards cmos batteries are soldered in
Another way is to reset the clear CMOS jumper on the motherboard itself. Both of the 2 methods mentioned works because most motherboards use a battery to sustain the BIOS/CMOS settings for the motherboards PROM chip. So by cutting off cmos the battery power, the BIOS/CMOS settings will be erased
or if using XP
Restart your computer during the boot process tap the f8 button three times this will boot into safe mode where the only things working will be your mouse and keyboard enabling you to attempt to repair your computer Advanced Boot Options screen appears.
Select the Safe Mode option using the up and down arrow keys, then press the ENTER key. Choose "Windows XP Home/Professional", depending on the version of the operating system.
Press ENTER. Shortly, the welcome screen should show.
Log in as "Administrator". Click Yes to not use System Restore Mode.
Click the Start button. Choose Run and type in "control user passwords" (without the quotes). Click OK.
Select the "Administrator" user. Click Change my password. Enter a new password in the corresponding text boxes. Click OK. Write this password down and store it in a secure place
Close the User Accounts window and restart Windows.
hope it helps

Hi and welcome to FixYa.
For an HP Compaq,
Press the Power button
to start the PC, and then press the f11
key when the standard BIOS prompts are displayed on the black screen.
When computer starts, please press System Recovery and then hit next.
Please select no if it asks you to use Microsoft Restore System and hit next.
Please back up files at this point if you have not already done so. You will lose all data that cannot be retrieved after this process is completed. If you have done so already, hit next.
Your computer will then begin the final process of recovering itself.
This could be a lengthy process, so give it time.
