Password BIOS deleting on my S4100XCDT

I m just buying an old Toshiba Satellite 4100 XCDT to use a IR webcam, the problem is there is a password bios and I cant delete it, I tried to use the loop back system but without success.
How can I do?

This is what you need:
1. Your notebook
2. An empty formatted diskette (720 kb or 1,44 mb)
3. A second computer (e.g. a DOS desktop PC)
4. A hex-editor (e.g. Norton DiskEdit or HexWorks)
This is what you have to do:
1. Start the desktop PC and start the hex-editor
2. Put the disk in drive A:
3. Change the first five bytes of sector 2 (boot sector is sector 1) to: 4B 45 59 00 00
4. Save it! Now you have a KEYDISK
5. Remove the disk from drive A:
6. Put the disk in the notebook drive
7. Start the notebook in Boot Mode (push the reset button)
8. Press Enter when asked for Password:
9. You will be asked to Set Password again. Press Y and Enter.
10. You now see the BIOS configuration where you can set a new password.
And that's all!

    This process does not appear to work for me.  I'm running 10.8.3.  I created a new user for a guest staying with me.  They have gone now and I am attempting to either change the password or delete the user.  It won't allow me to choose the user I created.  I am logged in as myself and it states that I am an "Admin".  The user I'm attempting to change is listed as a "standard" user and there is a white checkmark inside an orange circular background on the user pic in the list of users. 
    Can someone help me?  I am having a hard time believing that OSx will allow me to create users and allow them use of my computer and it's drives, yet it will not allow me to change the password so I can monitor what they might have been doing while logged on?  What if this were my child?  This guest left under sketchy circumstances, and I'd really like to be able to ensure they were not using my computer to do illegal things or to have illegal communications.
    Any help would be appreciated.  (It's odd that it was so simple to "create" a user and set a password for them.......but it's complicated or a little known process to reverse.
    Thanks.

    Here are two screen shots to show you what I am seeing.  The first screen shot shows it allowing me to select (highlighted in blue) my admin user (which is what I am locced in as).  The second screen shot shows it allowing me to select the "Guest" user (highlighted in blue).  However when I click on the user "Orion" nothing happens.  It will not change to highlight that user.

  • My daughter forgot her password, any suggestions of how to get around the password without deleting everything she has on it?

    She has never synced her ipod touch to iTunes, any suggestions of how to get around the password without deleting everything she has on the device?  Apple support recommended recovery mode, but doesn't that erase everything on the ipod?

    You are out of luck but a Date Recovery company may be able to help if the iPod does not have iOS 8.
    If there is an iCloud backup you can restore from that.

  • How do I remove password when deleting files...lion

    Hi. I upgraded to Lion.
    I need to know how to remove the password everytime deleting files.
    Im going crazy...how do I remove that appliction ?
    MBK

    Thanks for your speedy reply, Mr. Alexander. I did try that yesterday, going to the doc and making sure it wasn't a read only, or locked, but it didn't seem to solve the problem. I created the files using Pages and saved them as Word docs. 45 -50 files were grouped in a master file. I attempted to send the master file via Mac's mail software and then gmail. Both requested a password from the recipient--which I did not have. I then zipped it and sent it via gmail. I think the recipient could open the main file but not extract individual files without a password. Files were sent to a PC user. I haven't had trouble sending individual files prior, though I have not tried to send these specific ones separately as I'm hopeful there's a better way.
    Thank you for time and assistance.

  • I just bought an iPhone 4 a few weeks back. I tried to delete their icloud account, and add mine but it's asking for a password to delete it. I have no way to get in contact with them. Is there any way around it?

    There's no way around it.  The former owner needs to erase the phone and remove it from their account as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515.  No one else can help with this, including Apple.

  • Forgot the password to delete app store

    i've made a password diffrent from my apple ID password to delete app store and other locked apps and now i forgott it. Can i reset the password?

    Not without remembering it, that is what makes a password secure.
    If you have Find My turned on in Settings > iCloud you can use your Apple ID and password to turn that off, and then you can restore to factory condition, that is erase all content and settings, to get rid of the other password.  There is no way to change it without having it.

     As you've posted this issue several times, if the replies you're getting are not working, you need to explain what is not working on the same thread, rather than creating additional ones. From the halt code you've posted: Enter:     e9lo7gq79g  If the above code isn't working, check the following. 1.  The halt code ( generated after 3 incorrect entries ) that you've posted is correct. 2.  You entering the code on a QWERTY keyboard. 3.  Shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold  down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Plug in the AC Adapter ( leave the battery out for the moment ), start the notebook and try entering the code again. 4.  Try entering the code via an external usb QWERTY keyboard. Regards, DP-K

  • Can not get Firefox to remember a new password. Deleted old one for Password Manager, however it does not ask to save new password. Can't find a solution, please help!

    I changed my password for a website, and Password Manager kept putting in my old password. Deleted the password from Manger, however Firefox does not ask me for a new one at all. Checked the help desk, but the solutions are not working either. Restarted computer, nothing. What do I need to do from here?

    Hey lydiac,
    You could try going to ''Tools > Options > Privacy'' and removing the individual cookie for that site. You can also try going to ''Tools > Options > Security'' and verifying that the site isn't in your exceptions list.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • When deleting cache and cookies will my passwords be deleted also

    will my passwords be deleted when i clear my cookies and cache

    Passwords will not be deleted if you just clear the cookies and the cache. What you will lose when deleting cookies is the "Remember me" option on websites, so you will have to log into the websites again.

  • I want to digit a different password, I deleted the previous one but it doesn't ask me for a new one. What should I do?

    from Tools I went to menu Options, privacy, passwords and deleted that line.
    I tried to check the mail from that account but it doesn't give me an error nor it asks me for a password.
    What should I do now?

    Did you use the search/filter box in the Saved Passwords window to find ''all'' occurrences of your login and password? You may have not deleted the correct instance.

  • Why is my iphone4 not letting me delete my pics from my gallery ? InsteAd it keeps asking for a password, what would that password be cause I don't recall ever setting it up to have to use a password to delete pics

    Sounds like you encrypted your iPhone backup, & if so it's asking for the encrypted backup password. Do you have a company Exchange account on your phone?

  • Password for deleting apps

    Is there a way to set up a password for deleting apps to prevent my baby from accidentally deleting apps?

    You can set up Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps 'off' which will stop them being deleted (and if you set up restrictions then remember the passcode for it as you won't be able to recover it from anywhere) - the apps can still be moved around the screens so their positions may change, but they can't be deleted.
