HP all in one computer, bypass password.

I don't know I put the one stick of eight in and it still would not boot up maybe I'll just leave the **** thing alone.
 
Try this, making sure the power is off, unplugged and the system drained of all residual power by pressing and holding the power button for a few seconds before taking RAM out and reinstalling it.
  1. Remove the original working SODIMM.
  2. Power it on without any RAM in it. It won't POST but it'll beep and complain but it won't hurt anything.
  3. Power it off then install just one new SODIMM
  4. Power it on and see if it works
You can also try:
  1. Installing one new 8GB SODIMM in the 2nd slot along with the original 4GB SODIMM and see if it POSTs
  2. Installing just a new SODIMM in the 2nd slot alone and see if it POSTs
Out of curiosity, with the old RAM module out, can you take a picture of the label and post it? I'm curious as to what exactly is in it now.

I will. Next time I open it. I am a little relucent opening this thing, it seems to be a "bear" to get the top to snap together.
 
Sorry to not update sooner, but for now I got another 4 MB from ebay, the very same number that's on the original stick, and she's working 100% better!
Thanks to all. ( still deciding lf l'm gonna put a SSD in or not.)
 
Put in the SSD as mentioned above.
Worth it just so you don’t have to wait for all of the drivers to load. lol
 
It had been working pretty good here lately but now I notice when it goes to sleep especially overnight it won't wake back up I always have to shut it down hard.
Very annoying anything I should check?
