Presario C700 Power On Password

Help! i just screwed my own laptop, big time!

I own the C700 series laptop (C714TU). Last year i "think" i lost the BIOS and Power-on password, but still manage to boot into windows by using the F11 System Recovery option.

10 minutes ago, i updated the BIOS using the HP utility that i downloaded from HP. and now, i cant boot into windows anymore. with or without the F11 key.

It ask for Power On Password, and if i tried to access BIOS, it asked for Administrator password.

I really am scared now, becoz the HP guys said i must change the board for this problem.

can anyone help me?
