My hp laptop ubuntu password is broken

Asked by Deaf

Hello.

I got a problem with my Hp laptop Ubuntu system.
Just after installing , putting my username, my pc name and my password, it installed himself normally. But, when i was on
The lockscreen, after putting my password, it said that it was inccorect. I tried to go on the recovery mode, but my secure boot won't let me to. I tried disable the secure boot, but it's
Also blocked. I tried every single password i had in the head
And pray that it pass, but nothing worked.

For information (if needed) the password that i put on my pc
Is : "yesSir123"

I tried, but i can't go on recovery mode.
I tried to hold on shift, hold on Maj, and even don't hold on
Any keys.

You have to experiment a bit with timing.
Start tapping the left shift key as soon as the computer starts booting.

Is it normal that at the first line of code when it boots,
It said: Api Bios error or something like that?

Maj is just like shift, we, french, say maj and not shift

Ah I see.

As. Soon as the system powers on, repeatedly press left SHIFT

It didn't work.

It just keep saying: ACPI Bios error (bug) and othere lines like that.
After, it just booted himself.

If you see something like ACPI bug, then you already have missed the right moment.
Try again. You have to start pressing (and releasing and pressing again...) the shift key earlier.

If you get the grub menu with the escape key (at least I assume that echap is French for escape), that is fine as well. Now proceed as shown on the page that I linked in my first comment.
