    Dell Latitude 5500 Bios password

    Can anyone unlock a Dell Latitude 5500 with an 8FC8 suffix? I need to get this thing working as I have already replaced the LCD and the Hard Drive. Please help? Thanks.

    BIOS Password, just for reference. Not a HD password.

    A wise man once said that an error doesn't become a mistake until you refuse to correct it. I subscribe to that philosophy.

                                it depends on how much you will use it, or how much money you have to invest .... some of the most used are ... SPI programmers .. (Svod, TL 866, CH431) .. find more information about he on the internet ..

                                a video for information ..you can choose another programmer ..

                                    Hello.
                                    Since it is same model, I will not open new thread for this.
                                    Please help me remove Admin Password for this DELL Latitude 5500.
                                    There are 2 chips on the motherboard :
                                    One is 25Q128 and it is the BIOS (main program) and the second is a 25Q64JVIQ WSON 8x6mm and I suppose it contain the passwords and other non volatile information.

                                    I managed to downgrade the 25Q128, from official 1.41 to 1.0 so I can confirm that is indeed the BIOS main program.

                                    I post here the 2 bin files as I managed to de-solder the 25Q64 to read his content with EZP2019+.

                                    Can you please help me remove the password ?
                                    Many thanks.
