Reset bios passwornd on old Compaq NX7300

Hi everyone,
I need to reset the bios password on old Compaq NX7300. This notebook is of my friend.
I tried to reset password removing for one night the backup battery, the PSU cable and the CMOS battery located under the keyboard but without success. With this operation I only reset the bios (It asked me for set time and date) but not the password, probably is under a different chip.
My friend know the access password but not the bios password.
I tried to enter in bios with "common password" but after three times it locked itself and show me an "*".
Someone know a different procedure to reset?
Thanks

Hi
As far as I know Bios password cannot be set from alone. If the BIOS password is not known to me you need professional help. Toshiba service partner in your country can help you with this.
BIOS password is very important security feature and it cannot be discussed in public forum.
Contact nearest Toshiba ASP, explain the situation and they will help you with this.

Hi

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.

Need help with how to reset bios and admin password to reformat hard drive in 8440p elitebook.......

need help with how to reset bios and admin password to reformat hard drive in 8440p elitebook? removal of cmos, resetting laptop, using cccleaner, windows password recovery and hiren's was noneffective, any help is appreciated. thanks

Hi,
As your notebook is a business class machine, security is more stringent - the password is stored in non-volatile memory and there are no 'backdoor' passwords. Your best option would be to contact HP regarding this.

DOS PCMCIA support for old Compaq Armada 1571DM

Hi there,
I have recently purchased an old Compaq Armada 1571DM for a project I'm currently in, which requires both portability and the availability of a couple of COM (serial) ports. The laptop comes with a single serial port, so I thought to add the second one I need via a PCMCIA to serial card adapter. So I purchased one of these too.
The problem I faced is that the software I use to access the serial ports runs on DOS only, and as far as I could find on the internet, there seems to be no DOS driver/card enabler for this particular laptop.
I'll very much preciate your help, as I'm stuck on this issue for a long time now, and I really need to make it work.
Thank you very much.
Best regards.
PS.: under Windows 98 everything seems to work: PCMCIA sockets are detected, and PCMCIA adapter is properly recognized and installed thru its provided drivers.

Hi:
You may also want to post your question on the HP Business Support Forum -- Armada notebook section.
There is a member there (Rainald Taesler) that knows everything about those relics. If he can't help you no one can.

I used migration assistant to transfer files from my old compaq laptop to MBP but I have no idea where they are??

I used migration assistant to transfer files from my old compaq to Macbook pro but I don't know where to find all my pictures and music in the MBP. Where do they go?

I have now migrated my stuff again - I think the problem is that I clicked skip this user on previous attempts. Now I have 4 different users, one has my photos, one has my music and another has my documents as well as the one that is my usual one. I just need to figure out how to get the pics and music into the one I'm using day-to-day and I'll be sorted.

MSI GE70 Reset BIOS?

I stupidly disable my onboard graphic card via BIOS and also change the primary graphics to PCIE (because I am unable to install new driver for the GTX765m, and have it undetected in Device Manager after I uninstalled its driver, so the laptop only detected the Intel HD 4600).
Now after I made such changes in ghe BIOS, when I boot my pc, it goes black, I cannot see anything from the screen and hence I cannot go to the BIOS again to make changes.
I'd like to reset the BIOS settings bavk to default but don't really know how to. I've done some research and come up with some possible solutions: reset CMOS by removing and putting the battery back, moving the jumpers, pressing the CMOS reset button or reset the EC...
Tomorrow I'll bring my laptop to a warranty shop in my country, since I have a global warranty rights for 1 year, but it's not in the US and I think it's better if I bring them some possible ideas, because the model is pretty new and they may not have enough information.
Please provide me some possible solutions on how resetting the BIOS of GE70-2OE laptop.
Thanks and sorry for my English.

You could try various ways to clear the bios, but the best way is to remove the battery, open the bottom up, remove the CMOS battery, and wait 5 minutes. That should completely reset the BIOS in every way.....if you're lucky.
This will not reset BIOS settings. The only way is to either flash new BIOS (blindly) or change settings in blind way (manually each setting or just load Optimzed defaults).
Quote from: klover on 28-November-13, 03:21:01
Problem is I can't see anything as the screen is completely black so whether I constantly press Del button or not, the screen is black still.
That is why it is called "blind". You will never see anything on the screen until you reset settings. Have you heard Windows' sounds?
If you want to insure that the only problem is GPU settings here (as I think so) then Power off your laptop holding power button and then just power on again. And wait... oloong time because it will scan partition because you turned off before with a power button. In 3-10 minutes it should load OS and you hear sounds.
Anyway I tell this last time. To select default settings you may need to do:
1. Press DEL and hope that you are in BIOS already
2. Press RIGHT 4 times and hope that you are in Save & Exit Menu.
NOW EITHER THIS:
3. Press F9 and Enter.
OR THIS:
3. Press DOWN 2 times and hope that you are on Load Setup Defaults.
4. Press Enter 2 times to select it.
THEN I DON'T KNOW IF IT REBOOTS IMMEDIATELY OR YOU NEED TO SELECT SAVE CHANGES AND RESET.
This is why you better ask for proper key combination from owner of MSI GE 2013 model or even any MSI 2012-2013 year who will reset his BIOS to defaults for you and writes it or record a video of what button to select.
My key combo was based on GE 2012 series BUT I DON'T KNOW YOUR CURRENT UNLOCKED BIOS and if there are any unlocked settings in Save & Exit Menu (it doesn't affect if you use F9 method) or if there is unlocked CHIPSET Menu which affects how many time to press RIGHT after DEL button (additional 1).

Old compaq need help

I recently required an old compaq presario 5310US desktop. Yes it's old but it's stable. I tried installing arch on it last night but i failed. I don't know which graphics driver i should install on this old machine. I know for sure it doesn't have nvidia or ati. I think it has some sort of intel but i don't know. here is the official hp write-up on it. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/docu … duct=93197
any help will be appreciated.

byte wrote:I always find everything I need on the Compaq/HP site, their docs are excellent. So three mouseclicks from the link you provided I found this, which leads me to believe you should install xf86-video-i810.
are you sure about this. what makes you believe that it's the i810 and not just the intel one?
