From what little I've actually understood from the research I've done, is there nothing else that can be done to eliminate this? The computer was from a friend, no clue where they got it from and they didn't even know it worked. So nothing is needed or important within the laptop, I was hoping to use it as a way for my 2 boys to watch Netflix and Amazon or YouTube and simple streaming stuff, on their non-smart TV within their bedroom. (Basically just plug the HDMI & wireless mouse/keyboard in and use the TV as the monitor) So factory reset or anything similarly is an option. Really anything is an option I suppose, cuz from what I've read, it's basically useless unless I figure out the password someone else created, or open the system up and do something inside that is outside my skill set and ability..
So basically I'm just checking that I'm not missing something or someone doesn't have a magical trick that can salvage this?
It's older and the screen is busted up and I didn't pay anything for it. Just would have worked for what I needed it for, and would have saved me the time, effort, and little bit of money it would take for me to find some kind of substitute for my boys..
I'm open to anything since right now, it's just a paperweight for me...
Computer is: HP pavilion x360 m Convertible
Model 11m-ap0013dx
P.s. unfortunately I am basically computer/electronics illiterate and nincompoop.
Thank you in advance.
Here's to hoping there's someone with a miracle key to solve my problem..
