There is a list of common backdoor passwords for BIOS locks here. If these do not work you may need to seek help at your local computer repair facility, as cracking these passwords is either extremely difficult, or involves dissasembling the machine.

confirm that the Power adapter is ok if the A/C indicator comes ON on the LCD on the laptop. If the A/c indicator is off replace the the power pack. Else the board may be bad, replace the board.
You can clear the bios password by removing the CMOS battery from the motherboard, make sure the PC is disconnected from any other power source, wait a good 3 - 5 minutes, hit the power button a few times to make sure all power is drained from the capacitors, and then replace the CMOS battery. You can then power on the PC and the bios password will be removed.
Hi,
If you are talking about the Boot, HDD, Bios password, then the only one way to recover it is to implement a chip on the systemboard to shorcut the protection or to contact Lenovo for a systemboard replacement.
Otherwise you can check out theses 2 tutorials, with few skill you can make it yourself:

I have had to retrieve the BIOS password from one of these before. It is not an easy thing to get to. You have to first
Build a special 9-pin Serial cable using parts you can find at Radio Shack
Dismantle the laptop
find the correct BIOS chip,
Solder a couple wires to the correct pins of the BIOS chip (without getting solder on the other pins, or damaging something)
Hook it up to another computer via serial port
Do a dump of the information stored on the BIOS chip
Use a hex-reader to decipher the information and display the password within.
Here
is a link to a site that shows you in detail how to accomplish this. It
does work, and I've successfully used the linked method to unlock a X41
of my own.
Hello snapshots,
I have an x61, and you may want to check that all of the keys on your keyboard are not damaged, and that none of them are stuck in the pressed position. That is what the "stuck key" message typically means. If you check out the keyboard, and all the keys are fine, and if you are still receiving this message, try calling Lenovo support. There is an off chance that your keyboard (or other components) may be slightly defective.
Here is the link to the Lenovo site: http://lenovo.com/planetwide/select/selector.html
Hope this helps!
