Re: Lenovo G710 Bios Dump
Hi again,
I finally managed to recover my password. In case someone else has the same problem, here is a short summary what I did.
1) Get a bios dump e.g. with the Universal BIOS Backup Toolkit
2) Open the bios dump file with a hex editor (e.g. HxD)
3) Scroll to offset 29000(h); here you find your password (encoded as keyboard scancodes as explained in this post https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showpo...postcount=1005)
4) Decode the password using the scancodes on this page (https://www.win.tue.nl/~aeb/linux/kbd/scancodes-1.html).
Best regards
Greg
