I recently bought a refurbished elitebook 6930p from a dealer on ebay. it came fully working but with an unknown bios password. I have tried the bios utility executable but everytime I click on it, a dos window quickly flashes up then disapears. i have tried running as admin too but still no joy. the reason why I want to reset the password is so I can update my bios and hopefully rid myself of another issue. every so often, the screen will freeze with various random lines and lock my system. I have to force reboot. I was told that updating the bios sometimes cures this issue. it may not, but I want to elliminate all issues where possible. is there any other useful way that I can reset the bios password?

Second link, I contacted the ebayer and they said they could not help me with the chips location.
Thanks anyway
There is a chip that looks similar that if below the CMOS battery but looks much smaller in fact so small I don't think I could solder.
