Yes it’s a BIOS password reset.

I’d check to see if it’s not still the default password it shipped with.

I’d toss PLEX on it and turn it into a proper media server.

Rent DVDs (not Blu-ray) from Redbox and install MakeMKV so he can build a library of movies.

Add an OTA antennae in the mix and he will end up with something pretty close to a cable tv experience.
