Password on hard drive

Hi all,
I need to disable HD password. Not sure how to do it. I have a bios password but I enabled hard drive and now I can't disable it. Any thoughts? I have a T60P 8743CTO.

Backups

I use external usb drive. 250GB 8mb cache. I partioned mine in 2. One for backups and one for other saves. It just makes sense to backup your data to a seperate source in case you have a catistrofic hdd failure. I learned that the hard way. Make sure you have the latest rescue and recovery.

WIFI

Use access connections. Even with XP Pro2 I had problems with windows wifi. Much easier with access connections. I have a/b/g/n card in my T60P and with windows wifi its range was much closer in than with a.c. With access connections I can reach father out.

I have a T60P (8743 CTO) with a GL5250. I am just now getting a bluescreen after coming out of standby. I am not using a dock. I also have all of the latest updates. I am currently using Norton Security Suite 2008 and all programs with tools work great.
