Someone has set a password in the BIOS that prevents the machine from booting unless you know the password. There is a small jumper located on your motherboard and it will have small letters that say something like "PSWD", "PASS", or "PASSWORD". Right next to it, you will see two small metal wires protruding outward from the motherboard. Remove the jumper from the present position and insert it over the two prongs that have the letters "RST", "RESET", or "BYPASS". This should fix your problem.
