kaljukass Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 1. You cannot reboot at all?2. You said: I remove jumper and bettry but password still exist.How long time PC was without CMOS battery ? Should be at least 20-30 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponch Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 (edited) How long time PC was without CMOS battery ? Should be at least 20-30 minutes.Wow. Where do you get that from ? Experience ? To the OP. Where does that PC come from ? Was it running fine before (that you're 100% sure of) ?Also please edit your 1st post as to have a relevant title. "big problem" doesn't mean much.

jaclaz Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Additionally.What EXACT make/model is the PC? What EXACT make/model is the hard disk? jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
submix8c Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) THIS computer?http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/162801-difficult-issue-with-drivers/?view=findpost&p=1038553 laptop fujitsu lifebook SH531/GFX (WIN 7 PRO 32 BIT)Do you mean th HDD has a Password set in the BIOS?If so, uh-oh!http://globalsp.ts.fujitsu.com/dmsp/Publications/public/ds-LIFEBOOK-SH531.pdfSpecs in PDF says so. In which case you have a rather large problem that jaclaz -may- or -may not- be able to help with. Further -if- that's the PC that the HDD resides in, is it the one that -used- to function (and you made a Pswd and forgot it) and you put a -different- one in (from e.g. a friend or eBay that has a Pswd)?

jaclaz Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I cannot say specifically for that model, but usually if there is access to BIOS, there is also access to change the HD password. There are "generic" hash solvers for the main BIOS passwords, like:http://dogber1.blogspot.it/2009/05/table-of-reverse-engineered-bios.htmlhttp://www.bios-pw.org/but again it depends on specific make/model. Some models may have an actual encryption on the hard disk, in which case it is possible that one can gain access to the hard disk, but loose all data. Not enough data to compute. jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
