Locked Bios Laptop - How To Fix

I had a laptop with a locked bios and I couldn't access the CD drive or the USB as those were locked in the bios. I had no idea what the password was but after a little trial and error. I ended up installing Linux POP OS on another hard drive in a different computer. I pulled that hard drive out and put it into the laptop and the computer works fine.

Gotta find a battery for it now! Shouldn't be more then like $10 or $15 since its an old laptop! Perfect device to bring on trips and just load it up with games and stream it to a tv or something! What size HDD?
