Old transnote has CMOS password i can't remember..

#1 Post by PanamaKevin » Tue Jan 22, 2008 12:37 pm

This is an older pc that belongs to my dad, i had stuck a password on it way back when i was just playing with it, and now i found it again and want to get it back up and operational... my pops doesn't think it can be done but i am sure that there is someway around this... if anyone has any help or needs any additional information let me know!!!

Its an IBM Transnote Thinkpad
windows 98
Intel Pentium 3

the screen that comes up simply shows a Locked lock with a cursor waiting for a maxium of 7 characters.
