I found the EEPROM chip for my Dell Latitude 600m under the PCMCIA module, as posted elsewhere in these forums - thank you all.
My D600 has 24LC04B, not 24C04 - but I am guessing that it's similar. A data sheet that shows pin numbers / positions for the "paperclip" method can be found at pdf1.alldatasheet.com/datasheet-pdf/view/74894/MICROCHIP/24LC04.html
Although I have looked at many, many posts about this method I still cannot get my EEPROM to short out correctly and give me the "Manufacturing Mode" screen or allow start into BIOS setup. Of course, the boot order is hard drive first, but even with HDD removed I cannot boot to a CD - get the gray password screen.
Using "mod.shorter" method of grounding one side of the "paperclip" (am using a fine-tip probe from a voltage meter kit, connected to ground on the motherboard using a short jumper with alligator clips on each end) and trying various timings on pins 5 and/or 6, I always get the gray password screen (except a few times a black screen with "Invalid System Configuration - run Setup" that does not respond to any keystrokes).
Have tried with CMOS battery connected/not connected, main laptop battery connected/not connected, etc. If anyone knows the best timing for shorting on the "paperclip method" please post...
I have found -595B password cracks for sale, and also a couple BitTorrent downloads (also for pay) but don't trust that after payment I will get anything that will work.
Yes I like that page:
http://www.alldatasheet.com/datasheet-pdf/pdf/74894/MICROCHIP/24LC04.html
In the "paperclip" guide, it says just try and try again, even try different shorting of the ttwo pins, then turn on at the same time
I heard it's a matter of how many seconds you do it for
I believe you'll get there.
By the way, those torrent sites are useless
And the pay services, are wayyyyy too expensive
Someone was selling the actual chips, if you know how to unsolder it

Just to hello and thank you for your post! I also would like you to know that some people do read and acquire the knowledge given within these pages.LOL
I came for a master Password, doesn't matter what for, but what I have found out is to First contact Dell and see if I can get the Password through them, Which I have done and am still awaiting to hear from them. And if they choose not to help (they should I have the previous owners name, but if this laptop is found to be stolen then that's ok also, I would like to see it returned to the rightful owner!) that's why I haven't tried the paperclip method (needs done as I have a 595B) but I will use that if Dell gives no response and the Law doesn't show at my door, then I will run the CD download so kindly posted.
I see so many new members keep asking for Help when Help has already been posted many, many, many times..In both of the threads on this subject.
Read people Read!!!!!! it's all right here in the PAST post..
Thanks again kimsland!!!!

Thanks BGBYTOY
You'd be surprised how much negative reactions I have, even though I help users on all forums here (including this one)
Just a point to mention though. Dell are not the police, I am not aware of any time anyone has ever been called upon by the law, whilst contacting Dell, whatever the information you give them. Strange I know, but true. Otherwise you would hear of users having this issue. Of which I never have.

Threatening to destroy data on a server is considered a crime, you might want to retract that statement!
As for the rest of this deal I have asked Julio to look into it but he is currently away so I will not moderate the thread
I'm not sure there is much to clarify here, but I will still cover my basis:
1) We don't profit from any password removal stuff, and if we did in our site, that'd be our right to do so, but then again what we encourage here is free support from member to member.
2) Spammers don't get rights for posting anything, end of story.
3) Threatening messages will just get you banned again and again, very bad move. And if you plan to "hack" our servers, well, we will get back at you with authorities.
Starting next week/month we will close this thread and open a new one for FREE password help as we usually do. We will try to round-up all information currently available as well as passwords that have been shared so far for solving password problems.
Once again, this will be used for free support only but if out of good faith you (spammer) decide to contribute with passwords for members that don't want to pay, we will put a link to your paid service on the first post along with a few other sites that are paid in case members don't want to wait but just pay and be done with it.

Please design a new Video
I don't make Videos and upload them, but if I did, I'd do my best to make it stand out and sell my product well
If you did this, you would probably get lots of business from youtube.
If it was clear, with like someone presenting (say sitting at the Notebook) and describing all the things to do, clearly and friendly, and no cover-ups.
for that one service post of course

Well can't argue with that
for that one service post of courseSamyloo, are you saying you can generate a password for the notorious 595B suffix?
I was going to start tearing my 610 apart this evening to do the chip short.
