do not do that. TPM is one way trip if it locks you out, the PC is bricked forever. why use TPM its for CIA/NSA/DOD/DOJ, etc. why? and the chip must bet there and on old PCs it is not. here is your answer from HP. https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebooks-Archive-Read-Only/TPM-and-an-HP-ProBook-4540s/td-p/2349199 THE ANSWER IS NO, HERE IS NO TPM CHIP THERE. SO THAT IS DEAD.

why is there a monitor (external) on a Laptop. I guess the laptop LCD died too? no monitor told, makers name and brand or are you calling the lock LCD screen a monitor, well it is not. most old monitors died now, 2010 and older, non told they all die or 1/2 screen dead, from 1/2 the CCFL back lamps are Dead or dim or yellow tinged, or blink or fully intermittant the cur for the monitor, if is one, is test it on a 2nd PC. bingo good/bad known. if not a monitor here same answer. CCFL die in PCs old and monitors. CCFL are cold cathode fluorescent lamps. no PC told no photos of bad screens. sad face.

on ONE PC or all and TV? answering for ALL PC fail. your router not told read the manual on our unstated router . then using (a it told you) a browser on the PC go to 192.x.y.z address, (it tells you) and set DNS to 1.1.1.1 save exit router service page. see it works./ the router has a name , 15 makers? and zillions of models all are not the same but all have a DNS page, ever one,(for 20 years)

it is a one w3y trip,TPM and if you mess up boom bricked for ever. are you with CIA, only CIA,DOD.NSA ,DOJ use this the BIOS pages if looked snow this is there or not hp.com read your manual, 4440s the OS must support it too, none told at all. I say avoid it like the Plague, unless working for the MOB?(grin)

its broken buy a used or new switch assy, on ebay.

The only way I know to reset or clear the password is to know the original one. BIOS passwords are stored in Flash memory and therefore cannot be cleared by removing the CMOS battery like in the good old days.

push volume up key.?

I'm assuming your using Windows 10. Look at the keyboard. On the top row of buttons, just above the numbers, there are a series of 'f' number buttons. Check button f12. It should have a small light on it. White means the wifi is turned on, orange means it is turned off. press the button to switch it on and off. The laptop uses the term "Airplane Mode". If this doesn't work you will need to check your WiFi network is listed on the laptop. Go into 'Settings' and go to the 'Network & Internet' settings. Go to the WiFi settings button listed on the left of the screen. You should see your network listed. If you cannot see it listed go to "see available networks" and click your network. It will ask for your security Code to be able to connect.

hyjackers Hemahema1281 wants more answers to this question 6 year old posts. jacked, to 2019 why no ask HP.com this on THEIR FORUM the PROBOOKS are enterprise grade, PC and are not allowed to be hacked easy like toy grade PC's are. (no magic hidden jumpers, no back door passwords) These passbooks have special chip that stores the PW or TPM chip, you will never hack that. The PW is not in the NVRAM like on toy computers. old. so the coin cell trick will not work do you see why, answer, the PW is NOT THERE. but why even ask here, and not here, , I will now take you to the correct place and exact same topic (wow no?) ProBook 6470b here is your answer, and official, the smc.bin file fash the chip file, that only works on YOUR SERIALized PC and nobody elses.

It sounds as if your laptop is overheating. You need to service the cooling system by clearing any dust and debris from it and also applying fresh thermal paste.

I wish I could have tested it first but you can still try the Shotgun method. Your options are. Contact HP. http://welcome.hp.com/country/w1/en/contact_us.html Or download these files. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/zu4kdgxm052l87d/AAAMi-kfX4AVH8oTCbsOM4X9a?dl=0 Insert clean USB flash drive. Then run USB Image tool. Choose the flash drive then click on RESTORE. After restore remove flash drive. Insert flash drive into locked laptop and boot. "If HDD is installed remove before booting." At C:\OUTPUT type CD.. "Then hit enter" Type HPBR "Then hit enter" First thing is to save your settings. Select #3 re-program. Press "S" to save system information. Type HPBR and hit enter. Since your model is not listed select "SHOTGUN." After reboot repeat "SHOTGUN" a second time. Let me know the result so I can update my list. Some instructions here. "If you cannot boot from USB there are instructions to make a bootable HDD." http://mazzifsoftware.blogspot.com/2014/01/hp-bios-unlock-for-dos.html More help here. http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/49497-HP-Probook-Elitebook-BIOS-Password-Reset-Utility?s=ad18a86dbbaf34999e22b1225a42a395 REO I must inform you that these services are not endorsed by HP, and that HP is not responsible for any damage that may arise to your system by using these services.
