Not sure why you do not already know the password if you are using the family computer, if you cannot ask the person that set the password in the first place then you are not meant to have the information for one reason or another and GTG has a strict policy regarding passwords as per the Terms of Use

BIOS or Operating System's passwords are there for the purpose related to Security and Privacy to protect the legitimate owner of a machine. While there are many locations on the Internet that might help you learn about managing passwords for a machine's BIOS or Operating System, we a G2G do not assist in what amounts to hacking past a machine's Security and Privacy safeguards.
 
While such requests are often legitimate, and come from users who experience exactly the kind of problem that you post, we have no way of determining legitimate vs. not legitimate, therefore we do not respond to such requests.

I was rather hoping that your reply would say that you had asked for and been given the password but obviously not.
