    Found this whilst searching about:
    24LC16B chip had to be shorted using a different set of Pins (4 & 6) instead of 3 & 6

    Up to you, pls let ius know if it works :) (I can then update the list)

    if you only need the config password you can download the dst-cd. change or delete the servicetag and the password will be gone.

    sorry to say so but you are far far behind todays technology with this...
    and for the other tools you mentioned in your post, there are tons of them available in the internet. no need to talk about responsibility here.... anyways thanks for the link. I didn't use it but some people might find one or the other tool helpful

    cheers

    ok wow that was a completely useless post about nothing helpful..atleast i had and intelligent response to the problems at hand..thanks though..

    ps the responsibility part of that was for those who feel like hacking wifi signals and possibly affecting a network maliciously..next time show some tact before inserting foot in mouth nub..

    I don't understand this
    A CMOS password protected laptop cannot boot any Live CD, unless the CMOS has been set for Cdrom 1st and it's not password protected!

    This boot CD cannot help. mscrx response is correct.
    You may need to learn a bit more before posting support on CMOS/Hdd Password removal.

    Sorry, OpTiMuSpRiMe, but your information is simply incorrect.
  14. Tmagic650 TS Ambassador Posts: 18,759   +62

    Yes Raybay bios passwords can be removed by CMOS resetting only once in a while on desktops more than laptops
  15. raybay TechSpot Evangelist Posts: 10,720   +6

    Rarely, rarely, and on old or extremly cheap machines and boards only.
    I challenge you to name one board made since 2006 that can have the password removed this way. That went out with Service Pack 1

    I will not comment this since this place is a tech forum and not a kindergarden

    I agree to that but this will not prevent anything from happening. there will always be people who use and others who abuse. thats why I said no need to talk about responsibility.

    thats childish and not worth a comment either. you better think about what you say and how you say it next time.

    thanks kimsland and raybay for the clarification around bios passwords and so on...
