SOURCE: Same problem but have got acer travelmate 4150

Check on motherbord again you can find cmos cell it is look like round battery cell.
Then pull it for 10 minutes so all bios settings are defaults.
Also you can clear bios with jumper find jumper on motherbord it has 3 -pin 1-2-3 right now jumper is in 1-2 position set it to 2-3 position so your bios is clear.Then again set it to it's original position.
then it not ask for password.
Let me know if you need more assistance.
Thanks.

I forgot my setup password

google TravelMate reset BIOS password or "System Password". Some laptops have a button to push and hold somewhere on the laptop or under the keyboard. Others require going to a service center for a hard reset of the bios - no info will be lost on the hard drive. Also, some systems use a generic password like" "admin" or administrator etc.

I am using Acer travelmate 4052 model for past 6 years. I used password for booting system. Today I tried to remove my BIOS password using BIOS setting. System asked me current password. So I entered the...

Try "1" or "/" or "A" or some messy combination of keys because it seems like you probably had a typo during setting the new password. Try "Spacebar" try "]" or "[" etc for a password, if you can figure it out you can reset it to nothing again just be careful. Otherwise research acer travelmate bios password removal. Also that computer is kind of old, so if there's nothing on it of importance, I'd replace it. If you need data try your friendly computer shop.

I have an acer travelmate 2000 laptop. i cant remember my windows login password and the bios setup password is not working too.how do i select cd rom as boot device to intall a new operating system.

You need to be the administrator or have the same powers as the admin.. On start up depress F2, F8 or F11. One of those I forget witch one off hand gets you to the menu to change the boot from disk. It is probably set to HDD C 1st, Then D, then CD. click on D to put is at the top of the list.
