Hi
Remove to your BIOS password download the CmosPwd, and follow the mention below instruction.
Typical Usage for DOS and all Windows users:
1) Identify your BIOS manufacturer (usually displayed at boot-up)
2)
Start in DOS, or start a DOS session in Windows 95/98/ME. For Windows
NT or Windows 2000 boot from a DOS or Windows 95/98 boot disk (you can
find boot disks at www.AnswersThatWork.com), and run CMOSPWD from your
boot floppy (or another floppy).
3) C: [Enter] cd CMOSPWD [Enter]
4) Type CMOSPWD at the DOS prompt and press Enter.
5) CMOSPWD will display a list of possibilities. Use the possibilities itemised against your BIOS manufacturer. Remember :
a) For AWARD BIOSes, use the Numeric Keypad (with NumLock ON).
b) AWARD 4.50PG BIOS always accepts "AWARD_SW", or "d8on", or "589589".
c) Old Phoenix BIOSes will accept "phoenix".
6)
If the standard method does not work, then try to kill the CMOS
password with CMOSPWD /K (and press Enter), and then see if you can
get into the CMOS without a password. If you can, you successfully
"killed" the old CMOS password. DO NOT KILL THE CMOS ON LAPTOPS!
Watch for the status message "To interrupt normal startup, press the blue ThinkVantage button" to appear on the screen. The only time you have the ability to access your BIOS is while this message is on your monitor. If this message disappears, you will have to restart your T60 and try again.
Press the "ThinkVantage" button on your T60. From the list of options that appears, select "Start setup utility." You will be prompted to enter your BIOS password. Type "merlin" and hit "Enter" to bypass the password prompt using your backdoor password and enter your main BIOS utility.
Select "Security." In this window, select "Set Password." Type the new password you want to use for your BIOS. Press "Enter" to finish resetting your T60 BIOS password.
