How To Erase Dell Inspiron Hard-drive Password
I have a Inspiron E1505 laptop and had the same problem, I don't know if the agent broke the rules but she finally told me (after three agonizing days of trying to load windows 98 2000 95 to access a BIOS password DOS program, disassembling the machine to disconnect the BIOs battery and many other tricks that didn't work). She had me enter the word test in all lower cases and then shut off the computer, then power back on, get into the BIOs and enter: 4el1pkuw and that worked. She also said to try pressing ctrl and enter at the same time when entering that password, but I just hit enter and it worked. If this works for you let me know because I would like to spread this around the web so everyone can stop calling Dell's aweful customer service. Oh and I'm typing this from an HP pavilion that blows Dell computers out of the water.

There isn't any way to recover or reset the HDD password or the Hard drive data. To use your computer again, disable all passwords in the setup and replace the hard drive, you'll lose all data.
