Bios Request Getac B300G6 for admin pass wipe

[FMcCartney]

Hello.

Bios request for Getac B300G6.
I am including my bios from the eeprom.
It is a bios by INSYDE Corp. and Getac says there are no password hints.

I have a Getac B300G6 that is supervisor/admin locked.
I can not get into the bios settings and I hope a replacement bios.bin will clear this password.

I have learned much in the week I have been working on this.
I read the bios with a ch134a spi reader, looked for strings, used tools like AMITSESetup, and I just did not make much headway.
I just erased and rewrote the bios back but the password still persists.

I am still learning so if I am on the wrong track, please let me know.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Hardware1, You did it! That was the password to get into the Bios.

peste, Thank you for finding and clearing the part of the Bios image that contained data. I learned much from it.

If anyone else is interested, I discovered this Getac B300G6 is from the USAF. These laptops have a modified Bios, not the Bios that Getac uses.
I am not sure the differences but I have a Getac bios update file and I am interested to find out.

Thank again. I can now load Windows

UPDATE
This Getac B300G6 USAF bios is a little cool.
There are two Bios differences that I have found so far.

1) The Admin password can be "cleared" but there must be a default admin password that it falls back on.
When I cleared the password, I was still prompted for a password when entering the bios.
After reprogramming the bios a couple of times, I decided that I needed to make sure it had an admin password .

2) Getac has an option button called "P1". In the generic bios, it can be set as "blackout" or "user".
Blackout kills the screen backlight. When "user", I can associate a windows application to the button.
In this USAF bios, there is a third option called "panic" and it can be configured from 0 to 8 seconds.
That is cool! I suspect it clears keys so that the hard drives are not readable but I will test that.

Additionally, this laptop has a 650mw WiFi amplifier that is not from Getac.
I guess it makes the WiFi antenna active/amplified. I get great coverage.
I just added GPS from an older Getac laptop too .

Thanks again. I now have a fully working Windows 10 laptop.
