Bios password problem

[byubi]

Hi, my friend has a laptop and she (or someone else) put a bios password.

How can I reset or bypass this password?

clear cmos.

 

 

You will have to open up the laptop and see if you can locate a clear cmos switch or jumper, or just pull the little battery out.

clear cmos.

I know how to do that on desktops, is it the same thing for laptops?

It should be a similar process.

 

Do a google search for you laptop's brand and model + clear cmos.  See if you get any useful instructions or tips.

You could also try finding the manual and other documentation on the manufactures website... search through those, you should be able to find clear cmos instructions for your specific notebook.

What's your friend doing that requires a BIOS password on her computer? :blink: 
I sense something shady afoot!
