Dell BIOS Password Removal

There are no jumpers , you have to either obtain a password via rustam or see my site above to use the paperclip method, there is a PDF on the site with instructions.

Hey Ididmyc600

Could you send me a description or pic of where i could find the inspiron 8000 eeprom chip location. It would be much appreciated.



Thanks,

G`day rustam

I was wondering if its possible to fix a Dell latitude c840 (to get a new password on start up)

I recieved this dell from a friend, he was going to bin it so I thought I would have a go at fixing it, the main reason for this is to give it to my father for a gift when he comes and visits me in Japan,

Hope to hear from you when you have the time

cheers

cant rastam start his own thread for the masses??

Hi all you need to write a bit of a story for rastam, he likes it like that, and then if he likes the story or if he has the time he will help, I think he helps about 2 or 3 people a week, so you can wait and pray or if you are a bit of a handy person you can do it your self, if you do, do at your own risk, i did it and It wasnt that hard for my model, just remove the key board and it right there latitude c840 is my model.

well thats it for me, I read the above threads and pdf now Im on the home stright thanks to the guys and gals here at techspot

hi rustam i have tryed all strings that i could find got prog for admin password but with no luck could you please help my s/t is #cg1cb0j-595b e/s/c is 270-911-006-11 now house found this in loft please help.

Hey guys I am pleased to announce that the paper clip method works quite well all you have to do is locate the 24CO2 chip, which in the case of a Dell Inspiron 8000 is located just under the CD drive bay that is screwed in, but located on the top of the motherboard rather than the bottom which makes shorting a little difficult, by the way burning the ends off of a bread tie works much better than a paper clip, simply short the 3rd and 6th legs on the chip 1st leg is top right corner with chip facing downwards and 6th is right accross from it and your on your way to a fully functional laptop. Many thanks to everyone here on TechSpot who contribuited, Mainly you Ididmyc600

Thanks agian

P.S. Im pretty educated with most things pertaning to computers so if anyone needs help just ask me and Ill be happy to try and help

Nice thread people, Finally an educating thread. Is this not illegal though? Just wondering.

Regards,

Korrupt

Nah, not if it helps someone. It's upto the moderators and only if they thought it was illegal in any way, it would have been deleted already.

There's another good idea and one I will add to the site, a bread tie!!! I never thought of that one,

As for the legality of this, well its Dell PC who can complain if they like after all we are bypassing the security of the systems they build, but as their second user, no proof, support sucks, I think it's justifiable.

I have been running the site for over 6 months now and niether Dell or NTL the webhosters have had any contact with me to complain, apart from which the info is in the public domain and has been for many years, its just never been documented fully as it is now on the site.

A big shout out to Paragon33 who is the guru behind the info and without whom I would be nomad wondering in the desert of ignorance,

The info is "is as" and you are welcome to try it or leave it, after all you can get instructions on the web on how to build incendiary devices and the like, I think therefore that this comes under the freedom of speech act and would be difficult to control,

If I take the site down someone else will put one up and so on and so forth.

dell latitude d800

Well ive come to the conclusion that my latitude d800 is one of the few that cant be hacked. Ive tried every concivable way to break though the dreaded grey screen to no avail.My only hope is that rustam can come with with one of his miracle master passes for me. Here is my service tag #jzggz21-595b so if you could help rustam it would be much appreciated

Help I can't get past the Dell greyscreen!

please help!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello rustam, I am new to this website and this is my first post. I recently bought a laptop Dell Latitude model D600 from a garage sale.I noticed the laptop was asking for an "Administrator password?" I asked the lady that sold it for the password but she told me it belonged to her husband who sadly passed away and so she did not know it. I thought I could get it unlocked for a few bucks but I was sadley mistaken. I was desperate so I did a web search and ended up here. I read many reviews and posts on your miracles. So if anyone can help me im shure it will be you. My service tag #3VQ3X31-595B. I beg of you please help an old fool out or any info you can provide will really help me. As you know Dell will not help me and I would hate to throw my money away. I know nothing about pc's and I am desperate.
Thank you for your time

Edit: Threads merged.

Is the password prompt in Windows or during boot up? If it's in Windows, format the drive and re-install Windows. You'll need a bootable Windows disc.

Tell me what you have tried, did you follow the instuctions on the site ??, I have the location of the chip in a picture if you need it,

Let me know and I will do what I can.

No its the good old Dell security screen he has, there are a couple of threads
here

http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic50281.html

and here

http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic50281.html

you can also read the website in my tag, it has all the info you need,

You can also shout Rustam, he does like a good story in return for the password, however he isnt in very often, and this is now the third thread on the same subject, so I will ask a mod to lock this thread.
