Which they can't remember any more. I can still access my Operating system and log in, but I can't access teh BIOS Setup it keeps asking for password. <BR /><BR />I would be highly grateful if someone could share some light in how I can reset the BIOS password<BR /><BR />Kind Regards,<BR /><BR />Mustafa<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 24 Dec 2005 18:47:56 GMT https://community.sony.fi/t5/pcs-accessories/bios-password-recovery/m-p/75796#M102458 mustafahafeez 2005-12-24T18:47:56Z Re: BIOS password recovery https://community.sony.fi/t5/pcs-accessories/bios-password-recovery/m-p/75798#M102459 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>For security reasons, most modern notebooks store the BIOS passwork in what is called non volatile memory. You will need to contact Sony or a company specialising in resetting the password or changing out the NVRAM chip.<BR /><BR />Removing the motherboard battery will have no effect, nor will there be a reset jumper.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 24 Dec 2005 19:17:29 GMT https://community.sony.fi/t5/pcs-accessories/bios-password-recovery/m-p/75798#M102459 robpaxton 2005-12-24T19:17:29Z Re: BIOS password recovery https://community.sony.fi/t5/pcs-accessories/bios-password-recovery/m-p/75799#M102460 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Many thanks for the information.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 24 Dec 2005 19:31:16 GMT https://community.sony.fi/t5/pcs-accessories/bios-password-recovery/m-p/75799#M102460 mustafahafeez 2005-12-24T19:31:16Z Re: BIOS password recovery https://community.sony.fi/t5/pcs-accessories/bios-password-recovery/m-p/75801#M102461 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>No problem, sorry it wasn't better news.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 24 Dec 2005 19:35:04 GMT https://community.sony.fi/t5/pcs-accessories/bios-password-recovery/m-p/75801#M102461 robpaxton 2005-12-24T19:35:04Z
