This information is intended for experienced users. It is not intended for basic users, hackers, or computer thieves. Please do not try any of following procedures if you are not familiar with computer hardware. I'll not be responsible for the use or misuse of this information, including personal injury, loss of data or hardware damage. So use it at your own risk.

A. By Using the Motherboard Jumper:

In most motherboards CMOS battery is soldered, which makes it difficult to remove the battery. In this case we use another method.

Almost all motherboards contain a jumper that can clear all CMOS settings along with the BIOS password. The location of this jumper varies depending upon the motherboard brand. You should read your motherboard manual to check its location. If you don't have the manual then look for the jumpers near the CMOS battery. Most of the manufacturer label the jumper as CLR, CLEAR, CLEAR CMOS, etc.

When you find the jumper, look carefully. There will be 3 pins and the jumper will be joining the center pin to either left or right pin. What you need to do, is remove the jumper and join the center pin to the opposite pin. e.g. if the jumper joins center pin to left pin, then remove it and join center pin to right pin. Now wait for a few seconds and then again remove the jumper and join the center pin to left pin.

Make sure to turn the PC off before opening the cabinet and resetting the jumper.



B. By Using Software:


I have found that BIOS/CMOS Password Recovery Tool is the most effective.:
BIOS/CMOS Password Recovery Tool is a program that works instantly to remove any lost or forgotten BIOS/CMOS password. Simply boot your PC to DOS and execute the program, and get access to forgotten BIOS/CMOS passwords in just seconds

If your computer still working, and you know your BIOS password..

you just go to BIOS
>turn off your computer
>once the computer is off
>press the power button and before it boots up keep tapping F1 to access BIOS
>when you are in BIOS of the computer
> select the security TAB
> select reset password / removed password

Else if the computer is not working because you forgot lready the password?

Call Tech support of LENOVO: 8774536686

As per Depot they considered it as CID (customer Induced Damaged)

There is no way from them to remove the BIOS password if you forgot it, they will replaced the mother board of the system.

Hope it helps...

The password is there to protect you from having a thief steal your notebook computer, and then using your computer, because the thief won't know the password.

Find your original bill-of-sale, to prove that you are the owner of the computer, and telephone Lenovo, and get them to provide Technical Support to you.

How do i remove idealpad y510 bios password

Make sure your laptop is fully shutdown plug removed then remove your laptop battery,and there should be a small cmos battery which is about the shape of a watch battery, remove it for about 30minutes and then put it in back again then you will have to go into bios and change the system time to current date and that should clear the password and allow your computer to start, if not your might have to open up your laptop and get to the mother board to find the cmos battery , and remove from there if this is the case of which you have to take it apart i suggest you take the machine to you local pc repair man. i hope i helped.

Password bios lenovo y510

To reset the BIOS password read the information from this link.

In case of your Lenovo laptop the easiest method would be using software from Hiren's Boot CD as it's pretty hard to open it up and reach for the CMOS battery or the jumper and I wouldn't recommend doing it especially if it's under warranty.
