Hello Deb3280,

To assist you in a better way, please help me understand if you are taking about the windows log in password or the Bios password. I would also request you to private message me the system service tag so that I can help you with the further troubleshooting steps as there are ways to reset the password without even re-installing windows. To private message, click on my user name and click start conversation. 

Please write back, I'd be glad to assist you further.
