by boot up password I'm presuming you mean the Firmware password, that you have to enter before it turns on. is that correct?

it looks like you can try one of these two passwords: 47498324 or 00586459

according to an HP employee:

1. Use the unlock code posted above to enter the BIOS

2. Disable all passwords that are enabled

3. If asked for current password - type the unlock code

4. For new password, just press ENTER key

5. Repeat the same for verify password column.

6. Then leave the BIOS by saving & exit option to save the changes.
