    Dell D610 Password help please!!

    Rustam_, I need help with a laptop. A customer brought it in months ago for a fix so we quoted him a motherboard and hard disk replacement. He obviously did not want to pay for that so he bought a new one. I have tried latitude.exe and Latitude_MasterPW.exe and they did not work. My service tag is 9YPSB91-595B and express service code 21690202357. The following passwords were generated from the programs and did not work: 0BGNTVMV, S5M7QHYT, LIGILHYJ, INQ8QZ90. Thanks for any help!

    halp plz

    i have a dell latitude d600 with a 7 digit service code and i am locked out with a bios password.

    i use the latitude.exe, but it seems to only work with 5 digit...i tried to short the cmos with a paperclip, but the machine wont even boot while i am shorting it (unless i am shorting the wrong chip/pins but i doubt it)

    if i power up the machine and then short the pins the bios will not progress to the bios password screen, it just shuts down... which leads me to believe i am working with the right chip, only there has been new recent security enhancements to prevent this method from working.

    i have no magnifying glass but i think the numbers are right, cant really tell till i get a mag glass...does neone know where this chip is located on dell latitude d600?

    does anyone have any experiance with this?
    help plz!~

    meh,
    i run my own exchange server and i use dynamic dns, i can change any time i choose, plus my relay is quite secure;)
    just try to telnet to my domain on port 25 and see if it works:p
    neways thats what mailscanners and NAV server are 4

    i was able to beat the primary/admin password with the paper-clip method, but the HDD has a password too;(
