Use your username a password. Unless you stole it did you?

  • Anonymous Nov 24, 2009

    No thanks I found my advice is not worth the money that people make here. Plus its to hard just to move up to the rank where you can make money. I will tell you this there is software that you can download that will allow you to recover a windows password.

SOURCE: forget BIOS Password (Laptop - IBM Thinkpad Lenovo R60)

For that you need to reset factory defaults settings for bios.
For reset bios u have to open back side of your laptop then u find motherbord circuit there.
pull cmos cell on motherbord for 15 minute then it reset to defaults.
Also u can reset with jumper settigns read carefully on mother bord there is 1 jumper near cmos cell u read there " bios reset or clear"
It is on 1-2 position right now set it in 2-3 position then power up then all bios settings are reset.
then again set it in 1-2 its original position.

SOURCE: Lenovo thinkpad keeps dropping internet

This sounds like bad wiring from the internet side, or noise on the line, which would drop the connection, but not enough to indicate it. Get the line checked to make sure it's a strong, clean signal. Good luck, hope this helps.

How do i unlock my thinkpad T60

How can you NOT know how to unlock your own laptop?

Perhaps you need to consider a search for the terms 'reset thinkpad T60'

Resetting without the required password or thumbscan means youd wipe the data too.

When i start Lenovo thinkpad T400, i get to see a lock symbol with blank screen

Hi sundar1968,


I see that your Thinkpad T400 machine is locked and you are unable to make use of the machine.

to be able to unlock the machine power the system on once turned ON you will see a Lock icon on the center of the screen just press and hold down the FN key for at least 5-7 seconds or if possible untill the lock icons shows that it is unlocked.

This should help you with your concern.

Have a nice day,
