Latitude C820 Master Password Removal

Hi there,

I've spent hours reading through this forum for solutions on how to remove the admin password on a C820, I've seen that certain members have generators, and also that a short to an EEPROM would clear it, but I can't find information on where this chip is located and what pins to short, but I'd prefer the safer way :"Generated code"

It on of the much hated 595B service tags

Service tag #HKVKL0J-595B

If anybody can help, I'd really appreciate it.

Why not contact dell. If you legally own the laptop then they will help.
