Hi
The bios password would have been set by the owner normally and therefore the only thing you can do is remove the bios battery for a few minutes in the hope of resetting it.
Thanks

SOURCE: how do i override the password on my medion notebook laptop?
I assume you are referring to a system (hardware) password that you are challenged for when powering up the laptop, not the operating system password. You can just reinstalll the O/S into another folder to get access to the system and all the data files ...
Two types of system passwords exist;
1 type is the password stored in an area of the mainboard that is called CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor) a completely fancy way of saying an area whoes data is kept alive by a battery. You need to know if your model laptop uses a CMOS battery and how you can disconnect it. Go to the manufactures website at: http://www.medion.co.uk/ . If you can pull the battery for 30 minutes or so, then you may erase the password.
2 If you have a system that writes this password to a non-destructive area of the systems memeory in order to prevent data theft, you have a more difficult time removing the password. Some Lenovo systems must swap out the main board. the password cannot be accessed. Try the battery if you can, else Google medion laptop hacks

To remove the BIOS password all you need to do is reset the BIOS.
To reset the bios all
you need to do is open the side panel of the CPU unit and you shall find a
electronic battery on the motherboard. This is the CMOS battery. Press on the
clip to remove the battery from its slot and wait for a minute. switch on the
PC without the battery and switch off after 30 secs. now reconnect the battery
and your BIOS reset is done.
I think the issue should get resolved.
