HP Pavilion ze4200 Bios password (eeprom help)
I have an HP pavilion ze4200 laptop that i bought at a store called savers, its kind of like a goodwill store where people donate things. The laptop doesnt have a HD or batt so i put a spare hd in it to install windows and noticed the bios needs a password. The hash is 03399. I dont expect anyone to give me the unlock code cause most people charge and HP wont help cause i dont know who used to own it. It was a donation to the store i got it from. What im curios about is how hard it is to read the eeprom and either get the password or write a blank pass to the eeprom.
If anyone could offer any help i would appreciate it very much. Thanks guys.

Unlock dell latitude d610
I have a dell latitude d610 that has the gray screen of death and I need to unlock the master password. (service tag #c9kzt91) I have tried the program latitude, exe with no luck. Also need to know if memory battery has to be in to work, this laptop came to me with the coin battery missing and I was told it can only be bought from dell. Any help you can give me will be great.

latitude.exe works for D35B Tags only.

The shorting procedure works for your D610.
D620 Success!
Contacting Dell worked!
I had to fax a letter of assurance, once I did this my password was emailed to me and worked first time!
Thanks to everyone who took the time to help me! ;-)
manth59 - shorting technique or removing cmos on the D620, do not work on D620, best way is to contact DELL, prove ownership and they will supply the master password for your machine.

That is very good news, indeed!
Dell has an enormous problem with the way it has handled password problems on refurbished laptops. Laptops owned by the Government, and large corporations, then returned to Dell for reconfiguration before then being resold are the biggest problem.
But huge numbers of owners have lost access to their computers due to no fault of their own.
Dell has been hit from all sides.
It is nice to know they are responding in a way that is reasonable, and that protects their system, while protecting the rights of owners.
Thank you for the updates.

Thanks for the password Champ, worked like a dream.
For those of you needing HP passwords, talk to champ. Not a bad deal for $15. He hooked me up with a password in notime and it worked perfect. Sure beats the heck out of calling HP and playing ring around the phones.

Here is the online free Dell archive
ftp://ftp.us.dell.com/utility/
Although I could not find dset.exe but found other boards report this file as Spyware. What is it exactly?

I think you mean svctag.exe also in the Dell archive
I think he was referring to the I think part. (there i go again)
And was hinting we should stay focussed to the topic, help finding Passwords
Which I'm presently not! Point taken
Asset.com and Svctag.exe don't actually help in removing the password
But they can indirectly help, by calling Dell and saying, see it does belong to me!
