resetting bios passwords

Click to Expand / Collapse  Quote originally posted by tdc0001 ...
Hard Drives CAN have passwords.

Most often you'll find this feature in laptops who's BIOS allow you to set a password for Hard Drive access that is stored ON the Hard Drive!

Without entering the password the hard drive will not unlock and therefore all attempts to read or write to the drive will be denied.

There is a hugh discussion on this subject at the following post for those who are curios.

http://www.experts-exchange.com/Hard..._20423260.html

Reseting the system bios as no effect on Hard Drive passwords.

Thanks for trying though,

tdc
resetting bios only allows u to enter bios...thats done by removing pin from #'s 1/2 and setting on 2/3... turn off power and remove... then reset...after that...all passwords are deleted from bios

Re: Hard Drive Passwords
i have found a company that can remove the hard drive passwords, which i know cannot be done by changing the boards, any software or any other means
but they have two services,

one is for certain drives only

the other more expensive one is for all drives
