hey everyone just joined this forum
was lookin for help with my D531, i need to get into the bios and its password protected i was given this as a present from a friend who has forgotten the password
i was readin through the posts in the Jan-Mar 2008 section and noticed a post by Paragon33 he said this:
"The D531 uses a 25 series EEProm Chip and can not be cleared by eeprom shorting. You need a guy with a Master Password generator for the 595B systems and they all charge fees, except for rustam, who uses this forum for free help, but not often, and not for very recent systems."
i have already tried shorting the EEPROM with no results as Paragon33 has said, does anybody know how to get in contact with this Rustam guy??
e.g. like an email address or contact?
any help would be good
thank you
