Product: 15-f271wm Notebook
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 (64-bit)

Restored BIOS to notebook 15-f271wm and tried to get into BIOS setup. It is asking for a password that I do not have. Code given: 50616338.

 

How do I reset/disable this option?

 

Thank you for the assistance.

When prompted for password try 45774918 That should clear the pw. If not enter BIOS and delete pw. Use that code as old password and leave new pw blank. Save & Exit.
