    Please clarify whether you cannot boot the computer or you can boot but cannot log into your account as you have the wrong password. Forgotten passwords can be recovered from registry -

Hello there smohsin_p574.

Here's your geek-steer ...

Let me guess ...

You have just recently (or at least prior to this latest bootup attempt) performed a mechanical reset of the BIOS/CMOS password by either removing the motherboard battery, or (more likely) manipulating the JBAT reset jumper from pin position 1-2 to 2-3 ... right? Furthermore, you did this of course to reset a forgotten/lost password ... right?

If so, don't get out the panic button, you simply forgot to REPLACE the jumper back into the original 1-2 pin position. Don't feel bad ... it could happen to anyone, even me :)

Now read that message you computer is telling you ... makes much more sense now doesn't it?

I gotta know if I'm right on this one, so PLEASE do post back EITHER WAY ...

  • to let me (and interested others) know how things worked out,
  • to provide clarification or feedback,
  • if you have ANY further questions.

    @smohsin_p574.



    I focused so hard on the PC message portion of you question that I now see I overlooked your clearly stating that "...my computer was working properly but when i started it few days ago."



    If that is accurate, I would be remiss in not stating the obvious:



    If I'm right (and I believe I am), them someone else was responsible for this without your knowledge. In which case, you may not have any idea how to perform the corrective procedure.



    Is so, refer to your PC/BIOS/motherboard documentation (i.e., user's/system manual) and my solution's terms/descriptoon, and you should be able work your way thru it. If not, post back and we can cover it in sufficient detail.



    Good luck (and happy sleuthing).

I need password to enten the computer is lock

I would like to introduce Windows Password Recovery Tool 3.0 . it not only supports XP, 2000, and NT, I have personally tested it with Vista and windows 7. It works perfectly to reset any local user account to a blank password. I Wrote it to an old 128mb USB flash drive do this. Booting up and clearing a password takes a minute or two works like a charm. You can download it from http://www.windowspasswordsrecovery.com . It also supports cd/dvd

Please i don't remove password for bios acer travel mate 4520

Hi...

To remove the bios password you need to clear the CMOS.
Open your laptop look at your motherboard. locate the CMOS jamper it is near the battery. To clear remove the jamper and turn your computer on with in 5 to 10 seconds and turn it off. Reinsert the jamper back to there proper place and try to turn go to BIOS if there will be a password box appear.

Good luck! Thanks for using fixya

I want to buy a computer at a pawn shop but the bios password is locked. is it easy to unlock?

Hello there :
if you first shut down the computer and remove the side panel and get to the cmos battery and remove it for 5 min than replace the battery and reboot the computer this will bypass the cmos password. than just go into bios and set your own password ok?
best regards mike

When you remove the battery from the motherboard wait after few seconds (30), reboot your computer without the battery and press the BIOS key (F1 or F10 or DELL key) will not ask you any password. Turn it off and Then put back the battery.
