    elitebook 840 g1

    I've looked through this whole thread and sadly I cannot find a functioning link to the tool, is there anyone out there that has a good link or could just send me the tool?

    If you can only boot from hdd, install freedos on the disk and copy program on it. Insert disk in protected laptop and boot with freedos. Other is same

    I'm thinking this thread went to hell in a hand basket..... Locob's link is just shareware BS.... Will somebody please just put the REAL link on here?... I'd even be willing to pay for the dammed thing.

    Hi All,

    I have an Elitebook 8470p, I tried 'DOS' -> 'Option 5' but no success so went back to Windows and clicked 'Make All' in the unlock utility and tried 'SHOTGUN' but when I use the tool it says error 179b (not compatible) so looks like none of the utilities are compatible.

    I have my UUID and SN, is there anyway I can unlock my BIOS?

    Thanks,
    Shaun

    What happens when you enter in an incorrect password three times? Does it bring up some random letters and numbers?
