    [REQUEST] Dell G3 3579 BIOS Password & AMI Protected Range/BIOS Guard Unlock
    by zenius
    Hello, I have an old Dell G3 3579 (ST: 2WQ7LP2-8FC8) with a newer 8FC8 BIOS password. I have successfully attached to the flash chip (W25Q128JVSQ) on the motherboard with a CH341A programmer and made several modifications using Intel FIT (e.g., allow software SPI write) without bricking. I was also able to boot to a modified GRUB shell where I attempted to edit many BIOS security related options like BIOS Guard/Lock, Flash Signature Override, ME FW Image Re-Flash, etc.

    Unfortunately, some of these modifications like to Intel BIOS Guard failed because it is fused into the PCH. Also,...

    by bios-bandit
    Hello Badcaps People,

    This is my first time posting here, but I've understood this is the best place when looking for expert assistance! Thanks for having me.

    My problem is the following: My laptop (used to... see below) works good, except that the bios/UEFI settings are locked behind an "System Password". This is strange, since I've bought it new and can't recall setting the password. I've contacted the seller, no luck. I've contacted Lenovo, they can't/don't help. I've also tried other methods, with no luck. A repair shop has tried to update the bios to solve...

    HP Omen 15-dh0052nf power-on & bios password
    by Nopslide
    Hello everyone, I come here to tell you my problem regarding the power-on password. It is not a bios reset demand, and i can't have any access to windows. This is the bios and power-on password that is blocking all other things.

    My Omen 15-dh0052nf purchased second-hand was configured with the bios password upon purchase (very simple password :P ).

    Having decided to sell it in order to get something more powerful, I reset all BIOS settings and set a blank administrator password. But the power-on password cannot be changed to a blank one so I let the actual password set....
