Hi
I use bcu bios configuration utility for changing details as during the booting up I have screen with "product information not valid".
Someone been playing with the BIOS and I try to fix the problem using the software I mentioned above. But it comes with error saying that I cannot change it - "Access denied" returnCode="6". I don't understand why as there is no password on BIOS.
Can you please help me with it?
