  • ElitePad 900 Reset Bios Password

    Hi
    I have ElitePad 900 G1 [Product: D5J55PA#UUF], [Serial: (Personal information removed by Moderator)]
    I need to reset bios password (SMC.BIN)
    Regards

    Hello Terek,
    Since the Elitepad is an HP business product, you will need to contact HP Support directly for your country/area for help with resetting the Bios password. Elitebooks and Probooks cannot be reset via a password generator.
    A list of various phone numbers are listed in this thread here... HP tech support/ List of customer service phone numbers 
    Support should be able to connect you to the right person to talk to.
    You can also ask in the HP Enterprise Business Community in the section for  HP ProBook, ZBook, EliteBook, Compaq, Slate/Tablet PC, Armada, LTE .
    Good luck.

    There are no master password generators for ProBooks or EliteBooks and most business class laptops.
    You will need to contact HP.

  • Reset BIOS Password for Omni 27-1100d

    Hi,
    I try to use VirtualBox to run Ubuntu 14.04 x64 but I got this message
    "VT-x/AMD-V hardware acceleration is not available on your system. Your 64-bit guest will fail to detect a 64-bit CPU and will not be able to boot."
    When I try to enter BIOS Setup, it always ask for password. How do you reset BIOS Password for HP Omni 27-1100d?
    From what I'm gather from internet, I can force the BIOS to reset by altering the checksum or by taking off CMOS Battery. Is there any other way? I just want to clear the BIOS password not all BIOS configuration.
    Thanks.
    PS:
    I use HP Omni 27-1100d, dual booting Windows 7 (OEM) and Ubuntu 14.04 x64.

    You can clear the BIOS password by using the procedure described in the motherboard specifications document. There is no need to remove the CMOS battery, which would probably remove the current BIOS settings.

  • Compaq mini cq10 bios password reset

    Hello I have a compaq mini cq10 and I have removed the cmos battery but it still asks for a bios password on startup .
    sn#  cnu0024tvr 
    I have seen in other posts that it has been solved.. but the passwords issued there have so far been unsuccessful.
    So I assumed they may be sn# specific.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. 
    Thanks in advance!

    Keep trying any password until you get an error/halt code.
    Then visit site below & use error/halt code to get a working master password.
