Need bios reset password

Please help me with bios reset password HP pavilion dv4000 - system disabled - 13179 --- s/n (Personal information removed by moderator) - p/n EC329UA#ABA
Thank you

Without the DriveLock password there is no way to access the drive.
Since the DriveLock password is specific to the hard drive I believe your only choice is to replace the drive. You cannot disable or remove DriveLock protection without the password.

NEED BIOS BACKDOOR PASSWORD FOR HP PROBOOK 6540b. Have tried all types of bios resets, no luck.

NEED BIOS BACKDOOR PASSWORD FOR HP LAPTOP PROBOOK 6540b. Have tried all types of bios resets, doesn't work.
The password stay's no error code for entering wrong ones.

Hi,
I too have been pulling my hair out with this problem on the 6540B. However after 2 days of various driver combinations I've finally found a working fix. I don't have the luxury of reinstalling Windows XP as the machine is custom configured with apps which will take over a week to configure again.
If you've got no audio it's probably because you've installed the IDT High Def Audio Driver. You may have tried a whole bunch of other options also to try and rectify the problem as I did.
The solution is fairly simple:
Goto to add/remove programs and remove "SoundMax".
Reboot
The audio driver may try to reinstall on boot up... allow it to install. It will still not work and will still show exclamation mark against IDT driver in Device Manager.
Goto run... then type regedit and hit enter. Windows registry opens.
Goto My Computer>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>SYSTEM>CurrentControlSet>Services>
Delete the WHOLE KEY for AEAudio and then exit regedit
Go to device manager and uninstall the IDT High Def Audio device from Device Manager
Then using the original HP Application and Driver Recovery DVD supplied with the notebook, run the autoplay, choose Hardware Enabling Drivers, tick only the IDT High Def Audio driver and follow the installation instruction on screen. You will be prompted to reboot after which Windows will find new hardware. The IDT will install itself and you will find that the sound works!
Good Luck!
For those that cannot find their original disk, the IDT Audio Driver from the original disk is available at http://tinyurl.com/IDTAudio6540b or http://www.4shared.com/file/RxXn5afj/IDTAUDIO.html

TS1543 my mac wont stop at single user it continues to root, how can i get to single user to enter info needed to reset password

I my mac wont recognise my password, i have tried to reset password using single user but my mac wont stop at single user it just continues to root, how do i get it to stop at single user so i can add info needed to reset password?

Are your sure that wasn't a Verbose boot (Cmd-V) you were trying? That would go on to a regular boot.
Try a PRAM Reset, then try the single user, Cmd-S, at the startup chime. For the PRAM Reset, hold down Option - Cmd - P - R all together until it chimes a total of three times, then let go to finish booting.

I have a 2012 mac book pro can I use that to connect with firewire and load osx that way? and how woudl I do that?
Thanks so much!

To what password are you referring? Do you mean your user account's admin password? Or do you mean the master password for File Vault or do you mean a Firmware Password?
For an admin password:
Forgot Your Account Password
For Snow Leopard and earlier
     Mac OS X 10.6- If you forget your administrator password
For Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
     When the menubar appears select Terminal from the Utilities menu.
     Enter resetpassword at the prompt and press RETURN. Follow
     instructions in the dialog window that will appear.
     Or see Reset a Mac OS X 10.7 Lion Password and
     OS X Lion- Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
If you cannot do the above then try this:
1. Boot to Safe Mode by restarting and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-S keys until a black screen with white type appears.
2. At the prompt, type the following commands pressing return after each command line:
     /sbin/fsck -yf
     If you do not receive a "Filesystem OK" message then repeat this command until
     you do. If after seven tries you still do not receive a "Filesystem OK" message,
     then the system is corrupted and needs to be reinstalled.
     mount -uw /
     cd /private/var/db/netinfo
     mv local.nidb local.old
     rm ../.AppleSetupDone
     shutdown -r now
The second-to-last command above will cause OS X to think that the operating system is newly installed, and when the new owner starts up the computer it will send him/her to the startup wizard where he/she can start a new user without reinstalling.
This last method does not actually change a password. It simply removes the user accounts and lets you create an initial admin account as if the computer were new out of the box.
How to reset the OS X password without a startup CD:
Reboot into Single-user Mode. Enter the following and press RETURN after each command line
   1. Type fsck -fy
   2. Type mount -uw /
   3. Type passwd <username>
I have never tried this method myself.

Folio 9470m Elitebook need BIOS ADMINISTRATOR password

I had full control of the laptop BIOS, but did a factory security reset and after that I can’t change my pre boot password.
Please help, I tried logging in with the BIOS ADMINISTRATOR password but it locks me out.

Thank you.

For BIOS or power-on passwords.
There are no master password generators for ProBooks or EliteBooks.
You will need to contact HP.

Need to reset password for digital ID to sign doc in Adobe Reader on thinkpad using Windows

Hi,
I need to reset (or find) my password for the self-signed digital ID I created in order to sign a doc in Adobe Reader using Adobe Echosign software. I'm currently on my laptop (thinkpad) which uses Windows. How do I do this?
Thanks

Unfortunately, only you can remember your password for a self-signed digital ID. No one can reset or find it for you.

Need to reset password, lost install disc

I have a wireless router, Model WRT54GS v7. I moved recently, and I need to reset the password to connect wirelessly. I've lost the install discs during my move. What do I need to do?

The reason why the admin is no longer working as the router password because you might have setup a router password, not knowing, during the first time you setup your router...If you remember the router password when you first used your setup cd to install your router then enter that password else you need to reset your router and re-configure it...
To reset the router press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...
If your Internet Service Providor is Cable follow this link
If your Internet Service Providor is DSL follow this link
Then adjust the Wireless Settings as suggested in the previous post...

Need to Reset Password for Partental Controls

I need to get into Parental Controls to make changes and I don't have my password. What can I do? My password hint is not of any help.
Thank you,
Kat

What is the model number of your router?
If you have Linksys E series or valet router and you are using Cisco connect for parental control then you will need to reset the router and reinstall the Cisco connect. See this link.

Need to reset password in Panther 10.3.9. Retail install disc won't mount.

I'm at the end of my wits here. I actually need access to Carbon Copy Cloner, but everytime I put in the password and click "clone" it says I entered in incorrectly.
I did this a while back with my Tiger, G4 PB. I believe the Tiger install disk will allow me to reset password (it won't with Panther).
Everytime I boot from the CD, I end up stuck in the blue screen.

TheRobotsCubicle, welcome, either you need to fill out your machines profile here or give us a little more info on your computer and any add-ons. In the mean time try resetting the PRAM.
