Hi Martha,
If you need to unlock/reset bios password, here's what to do:
Unplug the pc and remove the cover. Look at the manboard (the big circuit board inside). look for a round silver button cell battery, about 1.5 centimeters wide. Remove the battery from it's socket and leave it out for 1 hour. Then put the battery back in the same way it came out. Plug in the pc and turn the power on. The bios is now cleared, and you can update it if you like. If this is not what you wanted, or you need more help, reply to me and I can help more.
Hope this helps!
Regards,
Joe
