carguy86

im fixing a computer for a friend of mine and the computer has an admin user and a non admin, we dont have the admin password but i need some way to either get the paswor or to unlock it so that i can uninstall all the crapware thats on the pc. (also need to gain acsess to images, music and some more documents that are all locked bechause they belong to the admn user) i cant boot the pc from anything external bechause the bios is password locked.

Pull the battery to reset BIOS?

Any unknown button should be pressed even number of times.

If you can select boot devices, there's a way to replace the Ease of Access exe with command prompt and get your way to change the password with explorer.exe

cant open bios, its locked with the admin password....

I'd just get the important stuff off it and wipe it, but that's me- I'm lazy when it comes to things like that.

how is your total cost for the pc in your signature $1000 is your gpu is $2000+ ?
