    I'm unsure if this will work. I have a probook 650 g3 and i really don't wanna brick it.
    I've read that this can possibly brick it, is that true?
    I need access to the bios to enable virtualisation but i don't know the bios password.
    think this would work or that I'll have to find an alternative?
    ive spent many days researching this.

    Hey,

    I bought an HP Compaq 6735s that has a BIOS password that I can't reset. I tried using your tool but I got an error: "Notebook is not supported (30e4)" I tried "Make key" on Windows, still the same result. Any chance to unlock it?

    Hello @Mazzif
    I have an HP 6730b with BIOS protected by password I have lost. I have searched the internet and it looks that your solution is the only one that works (apart of the buying the new chipset suggested by HP). Unfortunately I cannot find your USB boot utility and exact procedure how to reset the BIOS password on HP 6730b. Can you help me with this issue? Thank you very much for any support.

    Greetings all...

    Just wanted to stop by and say thanks for the correspondence and messages. I love seeing my work helping so many people still this far down the road. I'm sorry if I can't reply to everyone, but I can say this much. The answers are here in these pages for 90% of the issues. Do keep in mind that new HP bios updates have nerfed my tools. However, you can still use a programmer to rewrite the bios chips... Usually right on the board (no soldering requirements). See my other thread on the **70 series for that.

    Cheers

    Hello Mazzif.

    I have "HP EliteBook 840 G5" and i wanted to reset bios password.
    Unfortunately, i can boot only through UEFI, so, the x64 is the only way. But your tool is only for x32 as i understand.
    When I boot into the CMD from Windows installation and trying to shotgun, it says to me "wrong Windows version".

    But also, judging by the previous pages in the topic, this model is not supported by your program. Right?

    I've been trying to figure out a way to unlock the BIOS of my HP probook 640 G2 notebook for over 1 year. Anyone know how to inform some way to do this?
    Thank you so much.

    It is not. Also, this model uses the WSON chip package and there is no easy way to gain access to the chip pins for a read/write.
