Dont know where to put this

[danielle]

Ok so...
The previous network admin blew out with all the passwords, I got them all except for the hp laptop and he refuses to give it to me. ItÂ’s a BIOS password. Does anyone know, will CmosPwd work because I know laptops have advanced security, or do I have to get the security chip replaced?

its not the security chip, you have to pull the keyboard out, and then get the battery out for 2 mins+, and it will wipe out the password on the CMOS. ** you battery may as well be somewhere else, but most of the time its under the keyboard.

I dont want to break it though, Its not mine. Do you think it will be ok for me to do that?

 

[Blind_Arrow]

normally its not dificult, as when laptop gets repaired, the keyboard is the first part to be opened, and its not that difficult, on looking closely, you'll see clips/latches on either lower side or upper side pressing them will open the clips to open the keyboard. if not sure, better ask for some expert's help

 

[danielle]

thank you very much, i'll try it tomarrow.

Sounds a bit dodgey why would you want to remove the admin password o a computer that doesn't belong to you???

so he stole it, so what! also, i heard that the battery trick sometimes doesn't do the job, not sure if it will in this case, try it, i doubt it will break anything.

Hahaha! Could i get a cut of this stolen laptop?

 

[danielle]

i didnt steal it, its my works. The guy who's place i took wont give us the password. He said if we want to pay him he'll come in and unlock it.
