    Mr. Rustam,

    You appear to be the most popular man on this board. I spoke to dell on several occasions and cannot seem to get past this grey screen. Any help would be beneficial.

    Dell Inspiron 600m

    Thanks in advance!

    Dell Latitude D800 BIOS password

    Hi I hope someone can help me! I am working as a computer network technician for the military in Izmir, Turkey and I am trying to rebuild this DELL laptop. I am unable to change the boot order to boot from CD ROM because there is an admin password set. It must have been the previous airman who worked here last who set it and no one knows what it is. The service tag is
    F1GT11J and the Express Service Code is 327-404-294-47.
    I would really appreciate any help! I don't want to take the computer apart and DELL tech support won't help (I'm not sure who originally purchased the machine!) Thank you!

    Surfer dude, read the site in my tag, the password to stop the boot order being changed is so easy to defeat with the DST software,

    Hello Everyone. I am currently in Iraq, working for the DOD repairing computers. I have run across of few of these Dell systems with the Bios and hdd passwords. Wouldnt it be easier for all involved if Rustem shared the program he is using to break these damn passwords?
  8. Mr. Metro Newcomer, in training

    Yeah, probably would.But he may have his reasons and it may not be as simple as a program.
  9. mikehoff Newcomer, in training

    I'm sure he has very good reasons that have very little to do with just a program. Just a little wishful thinking on my part. I have never had a problem getting help from Dell, just feel bad for the folks that are.....

    That is the WRONG EEProm chip and is for a built-in LAN chipset. Do not mess wuth that one! You did not give us your Dell Model. I may have a location for the right one; I do for some models

    The chip is under the PCMCIA Hardware. Remove it and then lift the black insulation sheet. It is under that and will be a 24 series chip.

    inspiron 8600

    hi i have an inspiron 8600 and am getting the grey screen of death from dell. i need the administrator password.

    SERVICE TAG - 904BS51
    EXPRESS SERVICE CODE - 19598309173

    it says when it boots up the following string...

    #904BS51-595B

    i'd also like to take this time to express my disgust with dell. i call support to try and get this password. i have no idea if there are other issues with this laptop as it was a gift from the previous owner. all i want is to get this password so i can boot the machine and self-diagnose any other hardware issues. when i called support, they told me A) they couldn't help me on sundays because that dept is closed, B) that it would cost $39.99 to retreive said password, because they would also help troubleshooting (of which i need no help, if there is an issue, i'm not going to keep this thing!). so basically they're mroe or less extorting customers $39.99 to see if there's any issue with their laptop that they have already previously paid for.
