emachines e732 bios password
Hi Guys,
I have taken this opportunity to post information that cannot be found on any forum regarding the removal of the BIOS password on a new Acer emachines E732 Notebook. Believe me, I spent the weekend searching and came up with noting until now. Acer has password protected the BIOS Supervisor Password When you press the F2 key to make changes for Bootup sequence you are required to enter a password. Without the password you cannot enter, and hence you cannot bootup from any bootup disc. Acer asks for the return of the Notebook plus $100 to remove the password. Real Cheek, wouldn't you say considering you own the Notebook. Worry no more as I have found out a way to have the password removed. Here is what I did ..... eMachines Official Site: Home Select Products Tab Select Customer Care Select .....

BIOS_eMachines_1.11_A_A Installed it on Laptop and let it do it's thingo including reboot. Half way through reboot I shut down the machine, rebooted and pressed F2 and it entered into the BIOS setup without asking for a password. Pass this info to all and sundry and avoid paying ACER $100 Cheers :yahoo: |
