Howard;
 You can try this website, it has a bios crack download and
other good Bios info.
http://www.ping.be/bios/faq.html#q17

If you don't have internet access I can email the bios crack file
 to you privately if you like.

 you can short the bios reset jumper on the mobo if you can find it
or remove the cmos battery for a few hours.
 or try these generic passwords, you might get lucky :

AMI, BIOS, PASSWORD, HEWITT RAND, AMI?SW, AMI_SW, LKWPETER, A.M.I.
