A factory reset erases all user-installed settings, programs, and data, and restores your HP iPAQ to factory settings.
CAUTION All user-installed settings, programs, and data are erased from memory with a factory reset.
To perform a factory reset and return your HP iPAQ to factory settings:

1. Press and hold the OK and Rotate Screen buttons.
2. While holding these buttons, use the stylus to lightly press the Reset button on the HP iPAQ until the device restarts.
3. When the HP iPAQ restarts, release all of the buttons, and then remove the stylus from the Reset button.

The HP iPAQ will now restart and power on.

If you have done the above and still no go. Then your main drive has probably failed.

This legacy devices service password can be reseated by following this steps:

The following is required before resetting the password:

1. Access to the front panel of the HP Surestore DLT library.
   
2. From the Home screen, press Main.
   
3. From Main, press Information.
   
4. From Information, press More.
   
5. From this menu, press Date and Time.
   
6. Write down the date (including year) and time.
   

The display shows a valid date and time
Do the following:

1. Press the left-most button (button 1). This button is not labeled. A warning message to call service will appear.
   
2. Press OK.
   
3. The Call Center must then calculate a special password based on the date and time, using the following formula:
   
   1. (Hours * 1001) + (Days * 101) + Month + Year (all 4 digits) = subtotal
      
   2. Multiply the subtotal by 123. If this multiplication results in a number greater than 99,999,999 (this should never happen), use the special password of 44122333.
      
   3. Since the only valid choices are 1-4 for each digit, follow these rules:
      
      • If the digit=0 (zero), make the digit=1
        
      • If the digit=9, then make digit=1
        
      • If the digit>4, subtract 4 from the digit
        
      • If the digit does not meet any of the above, leave the digit unchanged. If the result is less than 8 digits, add leading 1s to make it eight digits in length.
        NOTE: As an example, 2000 02/07 2:30 is displayed (February 7, 2000 at 2:30). Plugging in the numbers: (2 * 1001) + (7 * 101) + 2 + 2000 = 4711
        4711 * 123 = 59453
        Convert all digits to be between 1 and 4 = 131413
        Add the leading 1s to make it eight digits long - 11131413
        
4. Enter this special code to the front panel.
   
5. Press OK. The screen will confirm that the password has been reset.
   
6. Set a new password.
