R50e power on password

#1 Post by emz » Mon Apr 18, 2011 9:40 am

Hi,
I know it is an old computer but i need it for testing software, so a few days before as usually I turned on and it asked me for a password. This is the first time i saw it. I took out the battery and the BIOS battery but the problem still exists. What to do now? Please help

It's no longer a power-on-password (POP), it now has become a supervisor password (SVP).
According to forum rules, this cannot be discussed, other than that you need to replace the motherboard.
