If you receive a used computer, the *best* advice is to wipe the computer of all data and
install the OS of your choice from scratch.

Boot the computer from CD/DVD and install your OS from that CD/DVD
Bootorder of the devices can normally be changed in the BIOS of the computer

Assuming that you have the bootable CD for the Operating System on the
computer I would just restart the machine with the bootable CD in the
drive and reset the BIOS to boot from the CD first and then reformat
the computer from the CD and then set the password to whatever you
want.

Hope that helps
