Upgrade that Vista to 7 via desktop, then upgrade 7 to 10 and use Windows' own clean feature to clean the crap for you. Breaking BIOS' passwords can be pain in the ass. Google the model and bios password reset.

depends on the laptop, if it some cheap thing just remove the battery (you might need to disassemble the complete thing to reach it). if its some business stuff maybe no chance, but even some of them are easy to clear with short circuit two easy reachable soldering points
