Hello guys,

I am not sure if am posting in the right session or forum, but I really need some help. Actually I have a Compal QAL51 barebone with insyde h2o bios. The problem is that I forgot the bios password and can't change the configs. I tried to reflash using this topic http://www.citronix.net/blog/how-to-remo...s-updated/ changing the parameters without success.I also did a crisis recovery but nothing changed. I've contacted the motherboard manufacturer and they charged me $90 plus shipping and I can't afford. I appreciate if any of you can help me and I will reward.


Thanks in advance.

the bios used is this: http://www.4shared.com/zip/W1DXBX-z/BIOS_V640.html?

Best regards

The crisis mode recovery went well? did it wrote into the BIOS?

Hello,

Well I think so. The notebook did some beeps and then rebooted with the older bios that I have here. But apparently it did not erased the password.

Thanks for you reply

best regards

Remove the CMOS battery to reset all settings perhaps.

Hello buddy, thanks for your reply.

Actually my notebook does not have a battery. I've heard that there's a small chip responsible for the storage of the password. Do you know something about it?


Best regards
