When you use the laptop next, click the "Forgot password" button and type in the last password you remember. This changes the password to the one you remember and then you can flash the laptop BIOS.

Warnings

Connect the AC adapter with the good power source to avoid power loss. If not, the sudden power loss can damage the system.
