hello Styx007
firstly double check that you gave me correct service tag
passwords need to be entered on a Qwerty keyboard (not 100% sure about that thou)
enter password then hold down control and press enter, you may need to press enter twice
passwords are case sensitive so enter as seen
hope one of those work for you

Re: Dell latitude E6400 bios password reset

Trebo, it worked! It's indeed correct that passwords need to be entered on a Qwerty keyboard. My laptop is equipped with a Azerty keyboard and I just converted the password to the right key combinations and it worked!
Thanks so much!

Re: Dell latitude E6400 bios password reset

trebo,

are there no options for my 1D3B-suffix E6430 machine (that don't involve soldering)?

It's HD locked (no bios, system or admin pass set) but even with the original drive removed it won't recognise the new one I bought.

I get the

'you are using a password from dell, inc .... all data will be lost if you press enter'

prompt for everything any generator spits out. I press ctrl+enter and it just reboots to the same HD password prompt.

Tried rewriting service tag to ******* via some dodgy, leaked dell employee utility but I've no way of checking if the rewrite worked.

Thanks advance for any reply as I've been struggling with this for a while.

Generator will not work for 1D3Bs so don't waste your time there
you say its HDD that has the password, if so I have always changed the HDD with success, you have to install a new OS
I have not had the message that you received ( 'you are using a password from dell, inc .... all data will be lost if you press enter' )
as your new HDD will have no data on it, why not just press enter and install a new OS
or am I missing something

Re: Dell latitude E6400 bios password reset

thank you for that quick reply.

replacement HDD just doesn't show up - not in bios or windows setup.

but, if i connect it externally it does. same when i connect it externally to two other machines but, in the letter, only as 'usb storage', and i cant format it or anything.

I was reading that the dell hd password is also written to CMOS or nvram or something and that this must be cleared (by shorting two legs of a chip while booting) prior to installing a new drive or (and this is the sketchy part) the new drive will 'inherit' the password and be locked too!

of course I read this *after* putting the new drive in the crippled dell, so maybe the above is true and I've rendered it useless; or maybe I just bought a bad drive idk.

now its a toss up for me between returning the new drive for a replacement to find out; or, purchasing a password from dubious-dell-unlockers.ru for $35 lol which works out to *only* $4.38 per character!

really appreciate your help tho, thanks.

nice forum btw.

Re: Dell latitude E6400 bios password reset

sorry. the 'lose your data of you press enter' msg occurs when I tried generated passwords on the old, locked drive. pressing enter/Ctrl enter/ x2 yields a reboot and HDD password prompt yet again.

that wasn't clear, apologies

Any HDD that don't show up in bios is not working, that's my experience of them
try and get hold of a known working HDD and see if that shows up
I am quite sure you bought a duff HDD, if I am wrong then some other member will step in and let us know
buying bios passwords is dodgy but HDD passwords is a bigger risk
