Hi new to this site. my son's laptop was running slow,tried to install the recovery disc,would not work. he told me that his friend put another password in.i think he put in the bios, but iam not sure. screen comes up, it said to press f2 to set up.did that ask for password.did not work. tried f10 that did not work what can i do ? i dont want to send it back to acer or best buy. any help would be great !!! thank you
try looking up the MANUAL of your laptop model. there should be something in the manual that says to REMOVE a jumper on the motherboard to reset BIOS password.
hi... If u r quite expert about opening the laptop..u can try it.. Open ur laptop..look for a tablet like battery called 'c-mos'.. Remove and reinstall it.. It will reset the bios settings.. And the password will be removed... Thank u...
