I found who generated the code to unlock the bios.
I sent him the Alienware Service Tag, and he sent me the code to unlock the bios and remove the psw

Alienware Aurora R15 accidentally flashed with XPS 8960 BIOS

by drux

Hi,
I've had an ssd that was previously used on dell xps 8960 and then it was installed in Alienware Aurora R15(intel version). On first windows boot in R15 windows started bios update and loaded bios for xps 8960(r15 and xps8960 essentially have same motherboards).

Now it has xps 8960 bios that looks different from alienware bios and when I'm trying to run bios update files for R15, I get unsupported platform error.

These models have AMI/Aptio BIOS.

Tried to edit product info with DMI Edit to change values back to Alienware R15, but it does not want...

Alienware 17 R4 Bios/Admin password

by Xtreme5739

Bought from a liquidator and nonworking on Ebay, and has a admin password set. Dell generated a code that didn't work, then said there is nothing else they could do. I've tried desoldering and flashing a bios, but wouldn't boot afterwards(beyond my limits). I reflashed my backup and it works again. I wrote a password cracker in powershell, but never got a hit. Not sure what else I can do.

Thank you for anyone that can help.
