latitude 5440 la-m401p la-m402p password

Hi guys,
I have a dell latitude 5440 la-m402p with admin password
service tag: 68ZL224
The device has 64 mb chip not 32. The other bios chip is just 1 mb.
I will be very grateful if you could help unlocking it.

Have you tried to unlock it yourself ? Read the dell password topic -> https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...23#post1622423

Thanks for your reply. It is not only about unlocking but I am also trying to check if the file is corrupt or the chip is not the right one.

Well, a 64MB bios compressed in a zip file should not be 63.9KB .Open the backup yourself with a hex editor and look at it, it is all zeros ,it should not be like that ,there is no other hex code at all. It`s a bad backup, not corrupt. If it was corrupt it wouldn`t be booting and asking for a password. If the chip was full of zeros it wouldn`t be booting at all
