Please someone should help me out with this issue on my HP 250 Laptop.
Recently, I was working with my laptop when an automated message popped-up, before I could read what it says, I mistakenly clicked "ok". Then when I finished with the work, then laptop entered administrative lock as usual, but when I wanted to unlock it again with my password, i was constantly receiving "WRONG PASSWORD".
NOTE: This was the password i've been using all the while.

Then on a close look on the password, I discovered that the number that is contained in my password has been replaced with a symbol. That is, my password is B**4***l, the number "4" was replaced with this "$" instead. This has been the problem why the system refused to unlock. All the numbers in the system, when clicked will display symbol instead of the number. I suspect it was the "ok" i clicked when a message popped up caused the disarrangement of my keyboard.

So please prof, how do I correct this problem? I mean, how do I bypass entering the password to gain access to my system or possibly restore the system without losing my files so i can gain access into my system?

Please someone should help me out!

press "Num Lk" (Number Lock) then try typing those letter again and see if that solves the problem.

Hello sir, thanks for your response. I was not online when it happened. I just finished working with the laptop and left it to enter standby mode. It later locked as usual but when I wanted to open it again, the number buttons below the "f" line was just displaying symbols, instead of number.

Are you sure you did it well?
If your num Lk is wetting in blue color you will have to press down the 'fn' key before d 'num Lk'

Also get a Usb external keyboard in case if it's the keyboard that has gone bad.

PLEASE DON'T ASSUME.

When entering the numeric part of your password, press and hold the shift key + the number.
Also, have you tried using the on-screen keyboard?

I have tried all these options but known is working

Sorry for your plight, I don't want to bore you anymore, with questions. If I were you, I will remove the hard disk, and find a technician,that can help to retrieve the vital information from it,(via master-slave configuration) after that, I will connect it back , and format it.
