I see this PC is aged, WinXP for example is not supported now. but if you wish to re purpose for other usage, you can try the solution below.

Not sure what password do you mean.

1. If BIOS password, can be removed by removing CR2032 for some time

2. If windows OS, you can perform a clean install of OS

Note: If the HDD is locked (HDD Password ask when booting on startup) and you cannot recall, you will need to replaced the hard disk.
