I have a laptop but forgot the BIOS password. I cannot go beyond the BIOS password screen and need to continue.
Is there any way I can reset or even remove the BIOS password on my laptop?
Solution:
Plug out all batteries, and the adapter, and remove the RTC battery that supplies power to the CMOS BIOS (according to the service manual p59, it’s quite easy).
After about 10 minutes, the BIOS will be reset… along with the password.
To dismantle the dv5, I refer you to the HP dv5 Hardware and Service Manual.
