If your service tag ends with *-595B & laptop boots from CD then you can easily fix it with the DST method.

That is not working on this laptop, I tried it.

I'm getting a bit sick of informing Moderators to ban members on this thread
Obviously the post made by karlosti (Note: Member Now Removed) above is stupid immaturity
And all the posts saying try this 3rd party option or this email address seems to be not getting through to new members and their posts.

Julio has already stated that this posting is not allowed, but members continue to do so (and then the posts get removed, and so on...)

As this only happens in this thread then I wonder how useful this thread is to others.
ie Dell supply passwords for $39
HP I believe is free (just contact support)
Other manufactures probably similar

Anyone outside warranty just need to register with the manufacturer

The PaperClip method had been posted a few hundred times
All information that can actually help all, is already posted

There's nothing else to post (other than hpgl or any other good semaritan (spelling?) who wants to help, every so often, ie not much !!!)

Why have this thread again?

Hi all
I have a Dell Latitude d620 from a friend which lock by a grey screen of death

Service tag: #GS8VK1S-595B
Exp. service code is: 36536479552

The DST boot cd method that Terminator_911 mention is not working as the laptop won't let me boot anything untill the password in entered.

Anyone? Please help. Many thanks in advance.

try again:

start notebook and press F2 to try to enter into BIOS setup.
At password prompt press F12. If you get the same hash as 13141, type in password 1215393
If you get another hash, post it here.

I have a problem with Omnibook Xe3. The Hash Code is 02501. I can't access the bios as the PW was changed and forgotten by one of my daughters. After 3 attempts it closes down and is now locked up. The laptop was given to me by my ex and I have no contact with him, will HP let me register and get it from them? Any ideas as we have no clue of what to do!

Thank you for being here x

hash code [02501] password: 1125418

Thankyou so much! What a star x

Hi everyone. I've checked all over the board but cant find any reference to Dell Inspiron 6000. Though I tried the Paperclip Method and now I get "Invalid System Configuration. Please Enter Setup." I cant boot from a cd-rom (dst-iso) nor use F2/F12. Please advice.

According to member Obi
At post: http://www.techspot.com/vb/post651742-105.html
The Inspiron 6000 can be unlocked by Paperclip method

Sometimes you need to persist a bit (I've read)

Unless you are just talking about Fn X

the Inspiron 6000 procedure, is a little special ;-)

I know I asked for the BIOS system password from this D630 (46TD1G1-595B ) I'm working on, however I forgot to add, that if anyone can provide me with the location of the chip to short, I am MORE than willing to use the paperclip method, but after spending 1 1/2 hours with a magnifying glass, I was unable to find the chip to short.

Thank you Obi.

I am preparing to perform the surgery on the machine, but just so that I dont mi(e)ss anything, could you please number the pins for me.

Again Thank You.

PLEASE HELP anyone? I am desprate for this laptop, Dell Latitude d620 which has a grey screen of death and I need a system password to get through so that I can use the DST boot disk to erase the service tag. For some reason the bootup screen deos not show F2 for set up or F12 for boot menu.

I also have a dell latitude D620 that will not boot past the gray screen. I have tried the dstcd but it will not boot to a cd or usb stick. any help much appreciated. Service tag is 51wbs91-595b. I am waiting on dell to finish the transfer of ownership but would really appreciate any help thanks

What is the exact story with the Dell 6400 E1505? I read that the paper clip method can be done, but then i also read there is no EEPRom? What is actually going on, is there an EEProm, if so where is it? and if there is no EEprom how do i clear the service tag? it is the grey screen boot order is locked and it is a 595B. I need to make sure i have all the 411 before i open this thing and up with extra parts.

Great Obi. Your method works very well. But now i have to search through the forum for the harddisk password.

I will post any positive/negative results soon.
