After a system board failure and swap by IBM technical support I can't seem to get CSS up and running again. My mother board doesn't seem to have a serial it says MFG_IN... I don't know if that's related.

I tried enabling/disabling/clearing the chip and the CSS Wizard stills says

A critical error has occured while configuring your computer. The Client Security Setup Wizard cannot proceed. Please restart your computer and re-run the wizard.

Except restarting doesn't help... grr I really rely on password manager :p

Any help would be much appreciated.

Same thing happened with to me when they replace the mobo from my T40, that didn't bothers me too much so i leave it.
But you can always contact IBM and send back the machine they are supposed to fix it right.
