i bought laptop from online, it's a dell latitude D610, bios is locked with pass word, i am not able to to change any thing, i need to make cd first boot to reimage hard drive. can some one help me to unlock the bios pass word.
it's Latitude D610 service tag is 53QGZ81-595B.
 
I also had the same problem with a latitude c640 (xxxxxxx-595B) time ago, and after asking here and there, and found out these are the only options:

1. ask the seller for the password

2. Call DELL and prove you're the owner so that they give you a master password

3. Replace a microchip( something like "24xx16") with an empty one

4. Short a couple legs of this microchip while the laptop it is booting up


I am not allowed to post links here yet, so I cannot help you more

By the way, I will never ever buy another used laptop on ebay since most of the times it will be a stolen one.
