Can you post back with the following.

1.  What is the actual halt code you receive after 3 incorrect entries?

2.  Whay keyboard layout does your Mini have - ie qwerty, azerty etc?

you ask:

 "1.  What is the actual halt code you receive after 3 incorrect entries?"

       Answer: 2MC9422LOD 

you ask: 

"2.  Whay keyboard layout does your Mini have - ie qwerty, azerty etc?"

        Answer: QWERTY

NOTE:  the bios Master Password Genarator gives me this code back (  74eov77kjt  ) 

when I enter that "halt code"  2MC9422LOD

I also need to add< 

 I tried the RTC battery and jumper proceedures tha those was a wast of time.

I tried hard resets, power resets, going to church, getting a note from my mother,  apologising to all my old girlfriends, teachers, instructors from highschool  and college along with various chants and hexes. And Nothing.....

The first thing that's worth checking is if the 9th character in your halt code ( 2MC9422LOD ) is actually 0 (Zero) as opposed to the letter 'O'.

Reboot and try entering  74eov77k1t

Hi

Based on David's question we get...

HP/Compaq Mini Netbooks

74eov77k1t

HP/Compaq Mini Netbooks

74eov77kjt

so it looks like a ONE but with the wrong font could be a lower case L, but definitely not a J

My hat off to you both. So many a thank you I owe you guys...

How could I have missed that one.

The 9th character was actually 0 (Zero)  Not the letter 'O'. 

74eov77k1t is the correct password
