Hi,
My problem right now:
The previous owner of this notebook forgot his bios password and sell this notebook to me...
Now I need to change some settings because it's for work, but I cannot change anything because his password is still on it. He does not have a spare key and lost his password.
So what now? Can I reset it somehow? I really need to go into the bios to switch some things on and off.
Kind regards,
Mailootje
