I am helping a friend who owns a G62-355DX Notebook which is sudddenly asking for a "startup Password" after crashing due to a dead battery. I tried at password suggested in another post for model 2000 which did not work. There are no passwords set in the bios, and this "startup" password is not a windows password. Any ideas
