Unfortunately, business machines such as Probooks or EliteBook have more strict security consumption patterns - they do not produce "stop codes", the password cannot be derived from the serial number and the code is stored in a nonvolatile memory to remove the RTC cell does not reset the password in this case.
If you contact HP Business support, they may be able to file a custom SMC.bin that you can use to reset the password at startup.
