Hello everyone,
Please I need help resetting my HP EliteBook 840 G5 BIOS administrator and post power-on passwords. All I did was restart my laptop and the same password that I always enter during boot suddenly don't work again. It's strange and I'm confused.

@hoaca388 knows what he`s doing, there should be nothing wrong. Program both files again, and verify what is written to the chips. Check around them and make sure you havn`t dislodged any resistorsLeave a comment:

Hello, I am attaching two BIOS dumps from two HP EliteBook 840 G5 laptops - I was unable to reset the BIOS password using these tools:

https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...349-rcunlocker
https://gist.github.com/schorschii/7...7b65ff22c27337
RC unlocker fails, while the two others generate a file, but upon flashing it, the laptops are still locked.

Hey everyone,
I recently bought a CH341A programmer, but I’m still not 100% sure what to do next. I couldn’t find any tutorials specifically for the HP Elitebook 835 G11, so I’m trying to piece things together.
From what I’ve learned so far, the process looks something like this:- Use the programmer to read the chip.
- Save a backup of the dump.
- Open the .bin file in Hex Workshop.
- Replace certain lines with “FF”.
- Write the modified file back to the chip.
- Boot the laptop → password should be gone.
I’ve also heard that some systems have both a Main chip and...-

by zeniusHello, I have an old Dell G3 3579 (ST: 2WQ7LP2-8FC8) with a newer 8FC8 BIOS password. I have successfully attached to the flash chip (W25Q128JVSQ) on the motherboard with a CH341A programmer and made several modifications using Intel FIT (e.g., allow software SPI write) without bricking. I was also able to boot to a modified GRUB shell where I attempted to edit many BIOS security related options like BIOS Guard/Lock, Flash Signature Override, ME FW Image Re-Flash, etc.
Unfortunately, some of these modifications like to Intel BIOS Guard failed because it is fused into the PCH. Also,...-

I'm using TONGFANG "GM7TG7P" model laptop for over 3 years and i'm entering the same bios administrator password everyday. My laptop has Aptio BIOS (American Megatrends, AMI).
But today it's not accepting my password. I'm %100 sure i'm entering the correct password.
I'm trying to reset my bios without success.
I tried :
-I removed the BIOS battery and main battery. Waited for a long time but it didn't work. They already stated in the user manual that the password will not be reset even if the batteries... -

by NopslideHello everyone, I come here to tell you my problem regarding the power-on password. It is not a bios reset demand, and i can't have any access to windows. This is the bios and power-on password that is blocking all other things.
My Omen 15-dh0052nf purchased second-hand was configured with the bios password upon purchase (very simple password :P ).
Having decided to sell it in order to get something more powerful, I reset all BIOS settings and set a blank administrator password. But the power-on password cannot be changed to a blank one so I let the actual password set....-
