Compaq Mini 110

Hi!

As mentioned above, I forgot the BIOS password for my Compaq Mini 110. The error message displayed upon entering an incorrect password for three times is as follows:

 

Password check failed

Fatal Error... System Halted.

CNU9457WQ0          (last digit being a zero)

 

Somebody please help me on how to fix this issue! Thanks in advance!

 

Ryan

For Bios Admin Passowrd

 

You will have to enter a wrong password 3 times.Then you will get a 'system disabled' message with a code.Post the code here for someone to try to help or enter it here>> https://bios-pw.org/

 

If you are able to reset the password , you can remove it by going to system Bios .

 

In case it doesnt works , your laptop will need a repair .

Thanks for the quick answer. Just as I had seen that you had posted I had already fixed it using the same method you proposed. Kudos!
