The bios password is the computer password that is stored in non-volatile memory. It is installed during initial setup and is easy to forget. At the moment, users are asking a large number of questions related to BIOS password recovery. To carry out this operation, you need to follow a specific algorithm.
Necessary
Personal computer, BIOS access
Instructions
Step 1
The easiest way is to reset all "CMOS Setup" settings to their default state. The BIOS default settings (Default) do not include a password for either starting the computer or entering the “BIOS Setup” utility. Therefore, if you do not remember the BIOS password, you need to reset it. This will reset the "CMOS memory" to its original settings. Previously, so-called service (engineering) passwords were used for this, that is, individual for each BIOS manufacturer. These passwords no longer work on today's motherboards.
Step 2
To reset the "CMOS memory", you need to prepare the system. With the computer turned off (unplug the power cord), find the “Clear CMOS” switch on the motherboard (next to the CMOS-memory battery).
Move the jumper (jumper) to the second position, and press the computer power button. Then replace the jumper and turn on the computer.
Step 3
After power on, go to “BIOS Setup” and check all settings. If there is no “Clear CMOS” jumper on the motherboard, you need to take out the “CMOS-memory” battery and wait a while. Further, the “BIOS Setup” settings (and password) will be cleared.
Step 4
At the moment, not every personal computer or laptop is equipped with a special jumper for resetting BIOS settings. Also, the jumper may simply be unavailable. You can use the method to clear the BIOS from DOS. This is done using the "debug" command. Boot into DOS on your computer. Then enter the command "DEBUG -O 70 17 -O 71 17 Q". After that, the system should automatically boot.
Step 5
If your computer has an integrated AWARD BIOS, then you can try entering the factory passwords.
Passwords are basically: AWARD_SW, TTPTHA, aPAf, HLT, lkwpeter, KDD, j262, ZBAAACA, j322, ZAAADA, Syxz,% six spaces%, Wodj,% nine spaces%, ZJAAADC, 01322222, j2560000 …
