Please let me know if this helps you out.

There is no default password.The default is that there is no password set. If someone set a password it must be generated by a keygen based on your service tag or config numbers by Acer tech support. If you have forgotten, lost or never had one do not try removing the RTC battery or bother looking for non-existent jumpers as those only apply to desktop computers. The reason for this security is obvious. Steve

Remove the system board battery for 2 minutes. then replace. This SHOULD wipe out BIOS PW.

To reset the BIOS password you must take out the BIOS battery on the motherboard of the computer.

On most desktops this is not a hard thing. Simply take off the side of the case, then take out the quarter sized battery on the motherboard, wait 60 seconds then reinstall.

On a laptop the same thing must be done but I must recommend you take it to a local technition as this is not an easy thing to do if you have never opened up your laptop.

ok, well, first of all, very very wrong category. You have a Dell Latitude notebook computer, not a Creative Zen Vision:M

you need to specify what screen you are able to go to. It could be that the BIOS master password has been set, in which case you need to take out the battery, unplug the laptop, and remove the backup battery (not sure if you are able to attempt this - i recommend letting a professional take apart a laptop as it is very difficult and time-consuming) to reset the BIOS. Can you hit F1, Del, or F12 while the computer is running the POST checks? This will get you into the BIOS and should allow you to remove any hard drive passwords or other security measures put in place by a previous owner.

Let me know how this works so I can assist you further.
