You need to go to CMOS setup or BIOS setup. Follow these steps: 1. After pressing the power button of your Laptop, press F2 key until it display the CMOS setup menu. 2. Select the Security tab then it will open the System and HDD security. 3 Enter your security password on it. 4. Save your settings. Then exit.

The BIOS password is removed by the BIOS configuration, you need the BIOS password to get into the BIOS configuration.But if you do not have the BIOS password then you need to construct this dongle device.

Wire the pins as follows :-1-5-10, 2-11, 3-17, 4-12, 6-16, 7-13, 8-14, 9-15
Plug the finished dongle in the printer port and power up the laptop. The password will be reset, go into the BIOS configuration to check the BIOS password, you may have to disable the BIOS password..
OR there are other places that will sell you a "Key" for a price.

The security password is set in the system BIOS. You must boot to the setup of the laptop and change it there to be nothing. You must know the password to set it to nothing.

no need to go in deep so much
while starting up of the laptop, press <Del> key or <F2> to go to setup.
select security setup
change security setup to other than system
and disable/clear passwords if possible, by giving blank passwords

you will solve your problem if you follow the aforesaid things

You will need the BIOS password to enter the BIOS setup.
To do a hardware reset remove the CMOS batteries for 30 minutes. Once your BIOS password is removed, you will need to press the <F2> key during POST (Power On Self Test) to enter the Acer BIOS setup.
After you enter BIOS, go to the Boot tab and down to "Security" and make your changes there.
If you need help with the default password, please re-post your request.
Thanks and good luck.

When you start your computer, tap F2 key to enter the BIOS setup. In the security menu is the area for removing/resetting BIOS password.

Hi,
assuming that you know the password. you enter the bios setup. usually F2-Esc Or Del.
whilst in the bios, search and change pages to find security setup, or similar. change password.
here you should find options to disable/enable or change the password settings.
