I have a Dell Latitude C840. Well belongs to Co-worker. I was trying to reload OS to XP Pro Due to loss of critical or corrupted files unable to access other users than Administrator. I can't seem to get into BIOS to change boot seq. Config setup is disabled and requires a password to change settings. I attempt to remove HDD to force boot from Floppy but says no boot device. And I do not have a system recovery disc. Incert OS CD-ROM and will not alow me to overwrite. Any suggestions?

Windows Live Onecare comes up with Java script errors which seems to be the standard reply to all other attempts thus far.

Lattitude c840

I volunteer at a church and a Lattitude c840 was 'dropped off' (should have been my first warning sign) When I fire it up I get the bios password msg. This system fpsx421-595b needs bios password, blah, blah, blah. I would have simply called Dell, but when you flip it over there seems to be no service tage. The spot where it should be was ripped off. Is there another place to look for it, if not how do I get this resolved. I'd do the paperclip/sandwich tie thing if I knew where to go. I looked at the schematics for the system which told me all of nothing. I popped the keyboard off and can't see anything labeled 'CMOS reset'
HELP!

"I have a Dell D400 Bought second hand, has anybody got any idea how to unlock it"

i have heard that if the original owner will transfer registration, dell will help with the laptops. Might just ask original owner what the password was, truthfully laptops are way to mobile and easily stolen so most laptop companies will not help with unlocking passwords. be aware that laptop drives can also be protected with passwords and it is written to the drive, not bios, removing drive and sticking it in another system will still not let you into it.

Supposedly you can reset the BIOS password on Dell desktops by resetting a jumper, according to a Dell support page.

Dell says you have to contact them for resetting laptops' passwords.
