I told the seller if he doesn't provide the password within 24 hours its going to be an item not as described case.
Have you tried resetting the BIOS/Settings partition? I think you can reset it by downloading the right utility off of HP's FTP (I think this is it) and booting from the floppies it prompts you to create when you execute it. Then use some of the tips listed at this thread to get the case off if you can't get it off normally.
This one is new enough to have normal BIOs on ROM. It's not a hard disk based BIOs like the older ones.
