Why don't you just format the SSD HDD? and do a clean install of the OS.
It deletes all passwords.

If you have a USB CD drive, try downloading dban(burn it to a cdr) and boot from the disc. It will give you the option of formatting the drive and removing all data from it(including password protected drives)http://www.dban.org/
