That sounds like the BIOS password.
The BIOS password has everything to do with the motherboard and
nothing to do with Windows.

Check your motherboard/computer manual and/or contact the manufacturer
for BIOS password details.
 
You will need to open the PC and look for the cmos battery. Take the battery
out, leave ot for a min. or so and the replace the battery. Close the PC up
and boot the computer. This should clear the password. If not you will need
to pull the jumper boot the WS and whenn the Windows splash screen appears
turn off the PC replace the jumper and boot the PC.
