I bought an HP Omen laptop from Walmart. It was a display model and they knocked some money off because it has a power on password. I have no clue how to get rid of the password. If I put the incorrect password in 3 times it sames something about the hp sparekey that I do not have. I have tried resetting the bios with windows key + b, but the password is still there. I currently have the motherboard out of the laptop and I am trying to use a ch341a programmer, but really have no idea what I am doing . The bios chip is a Winbond 25Q80DVSIG 1806 if that helps.

Make current BIOS dump with CH341A programmer.

I am not having any luck reading off of the bios. i was able to read the video bios chip, but when I try to read off of the motherboard bios I get that it cannot detect the chip. I have tried some different options, but i haven't had any luck. Do you have a link to some software I should try?

I'm not a tutor.

I will pay $50 to have the power on password removed from my bin file.
Thanks

It's not BIOS chip. It's too small. I think it's EC chip. Try to find other one on the motherboard.

Thanks I was focused on the wrong chip. I think I got it this time. It was hiding under the wireless card. Also in case anyone else is having trouble I had to plug the power to the motherboard to get the reader to read the chip. I saw that tip in another thread and it worked for me.
