      Hi.

      I've used HPunlocker multiple times and never had a problem. Now I'm trying to unlock the 840 G5, the program generates the _unlocked file but after playing it to memory the password is still there. will you help?

          Upload the dump from the second bios chip.

          It's not a good approach to solve the matter in this case.

                    Re: Hp ellİtebook 840 g5 bios password

                    Does anybody know how to activate the manufacturing program mode (MPM) of an 840 G5 Motherboard. I need to change the system unique data after replacing the motherboard.

                    Many thanks

                                Re: Hp ellİtebook 840 g5 bios password

                                Hi there! I am attempting to remove the bios password from a decommissioned Elitebook 840 G5. I came across post #56 of this thread which fit my laptop's criteria exactly, and followed the directions offered by the response in post #57. I used a ch341a with the BIOS chip soldered onto the adapter to read and verify the original bios and then used the HPUnlocker v1 program to generate the unlocked bin file (both attached here). I rewrote the unlocked file to the chip and then soldered back into place on the motherboard.

                                After putting it together, I'm now experiencing an issue where the capslock button light and power button are flickering (see image ezgif-2-da60db5cdd.jpg). I read that this might be an indication of a bios corruption and I tried to do the Win+B during startup to see if it would reset it, but to no avail. I'm hesitant to desolder and reflash the bios again due to how difficult it was for me to get it back into place, but I will do it if it means I'll have a working laptop again.

                                If anyone could provide me guidance, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks for your time.

                                            HP 255R G10 – BIOS Admin Password Locked, Cannot Enter BIOS (Need Guidance / SMC.bin Help)
                                            by chriswfrye21
                                            Hi everyone,
                                            I’m working on an HP 255R 15.6" G10 Notebook PC that has a BIOS Administrator / Setup password I cannot bypass. I can boot Windows normally, but F10 is completely blocked unless the password is entered. I do not know the password.
                                            This is not a Power‑On Password. This is a BIOS Admin password stored in NVRAM, and the system will not allow BIOS access at all.
                                            I’m posting here to get help identifying the correct procedure, dump, or method needed to clear the password on this model. System Details

                                            by Olegst44
                                            Hello everyone,

                                            I need help with BIOS password removal for Acer Aspire 3 A315-22G laptop.

                                            - Model: Acer Aspire 3 A315-22G

                                            Dell Latitude 5530 BIOS Password Removal Attempted but I Broke the Laptop
                                            by TopPop
                                            Sorry for the long story. I have a Dell Latitude 5530 (i7) laptop (South Peak 15 MLK MB DDR4 203102-1 FK8VG$JA) with an admin BIOS password that I want to remove. Service Tag: HYKFPT3. Other than that the laptop worked OK.

                                            I found a CH341A Black and went looking for the BIOS chip on the motherboard. After trying to read one chip that was a firmware chip but not the BIOS I think I found the BIOS chip labeled Winbond 25Q256JVEN. Altogether I think I found 4 different firmware chips in the laptop. The BIOS chip is a WSON8 6x8. I used the CH341A, NeoProgrammer, and a cheap pogo pin clip...

                                            Hi everyone,

                                            I’m a student currently locked out of the BIOS on my HP EliteBook 830 G6. I bought the laptop second-hand, and the previous owner didn't provide the password. I really need access to the BIOS to change storage settings and boot orders for my studies.

                                            System Details:
                                            • Model: HP EliteBook 830 G6
                                            • Processor: Intel Core i5 (8th Gen)
                                            • Serial Number: 5CG0080LKD
                                            • Halt Code (from 3rd fail): qeh11u1kst

                                            I'm hoping someone here can help me generate an SMC.bin file or provide a master password that works for this generation. Any guidance on how to get back...

                                            [REQUEST] Dell G3 3579 BIOS Password & AMI Protected Range/BIOS Guard Unlock
                                            by zenius
                                            Hello, 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,...
