Bios password

[bvill_cs]

We have a laptop with a bios password that was supposedly
deleted and now we can't get past the bios log in
screen. How can this be removed?

You'll have to contact the manufacturer of the laptop
computer and request a BIOS reset disk. The following
web site may be of help:

1. Open XP's "Help and Support Center".
2. Click on "Use tools to view your computer information......."
3. Then click on "My Computer Information".
4. Finally, click on "View general system information about this computer".

Thank you Carey. That did the trick. One learns something new everyday.

Your manual will tell you.

Sometimes you can "short the bios". Turn off the computer, there should be a
jumper near the bios chip, set the jumper to shunt the bios, boot up, It
will not, Turn the computer off and reverse the jumper, reboot and now see
of the problem is gone.
Have used this trick many times.
