NEED A SPARE PART

the only way I know of to clear a bios set password is to "flash" the bios. just go to google and type in search box.... how to flash bios on a omnibook xe3.... and see what comes up.

BIOS passwords can be reset in two ways:

1. using software 2. using hardware.

I would first try resetting using software, here are two software apps to reset or retrieve BIOS passwords.

!BIOS - is a PC BIOS toolkit offering password removal/decrypt and BIOS settings modification/backup/restore.
You can download it here:

CmosPwd - Cmos password recovery tools

You will need to create a bootable Dos, or Linux or NT cd in order to run them.

Good Luck!

And what is the issue with your Onmibook?

I have had success is taking the backup battery out for at least 10 min ...you may be able to remove just the keyboard to gain access to it...just unplug it wait and re-plug it

Just go to here

Enter your model and hash code and they email back your bios master password for your Laptop/computer.

this may be a h/w failure. go to bios and run the hdd test from the diagnostic option. if it says no ide device found, reseat the hdd and turn it back on. if its still the same. replace ur hdd.

pls you opain your main board. right side a small battary opain it. after 20 min again fixed it
restart your pc . you see thare are all passward remove. Now you put new password. thanks
