BIOS setup administrator password

[Recycledflesh]

I am pulling my hair out on this one!!! I have tried most of the codes listed on the forums and none work! I have even removed and reset hard drive and NEED to get into BIOS setup to check .After 3 attempts I get "system disable 66321791"

sorry if I'm annoying but now the mini is telling me PXE-E61:Media Test failure,check cable ????

Hi,

No problem

Shut down the notebook.  Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu.  Select the Bios option ( f10 ) and under the Advanced or Diagnostic tab you should find the facility to run a test on the Hard Drive.

Note:  If the option to run these tests is not available in the Bios Menu, use the f2 diagnostic menu instead.

Tried that ,ran memory tests all okay,ran hard drive test and says "hard Drive not exist"

Hi,

Given the error code and the fact that the notebook was trying to network boot, it would look like the hard drive has failed and will need to be replaced.

If you would like a guide on replacing the Hard Drive yourself, please let me know.
