Hi everyone

I've been using computers since the Acorn Electron (the computer before the BBC master - used in the majority of British schools to teach computing in the late 80/90s).

I learnt programming on an Amstrad PC, running DOS 3(?) and have gone through most iterations of Windows. I own a MacBook and an old HP laptop PC at home. I've used Linux and various flavours of Unix via past jobs and a passing interest.

Working in ICT support (PC repair/software install etc) for over 30 years but I feel that there more interesting stuff happening at lower levels and I sometimes tinker with Raspberry Pi boards (Pi zero / nano etc).

Came across this site when looking for details on flashing BIOS (I currently work in a Scottish College and loan student laptops have had their passwords set by students that thought they now owned them 🤦🏻)

I think I can learn a lot from being here.

Hello.
I have been interested in electronics for over 40 years, and I've been dabbling in various programming languages as a hobby for about 35 years. I've dealt with practically everything that works with or consumes electricity—I've installed electrical systems, communication systems, and automation for dozens of houses and repaired home appliances and consumer electronics. For the last three years, I have focused on repairing laptops and desktop computers. Alongside my main job, which involves hardware development and testing related to energy systems, I also repair laptops that stores selling used equipment prefer not to handle. I hope this forum will help me find solutions to various problems that I still struggle with, or for which it is difficult to find information elsewhere.
All the best and good health to us all

Hello im usually known as Kabel Salat and im here seeking guidance with hardware repair. My last attempt at unlocking a bios was with my macbook. After successfully unlocking it and testing that it works I accidentally slipped with my screwdriver while reconnecting the battery which seems to have killed the board.

Currently im working on a new project involving a dozen HP laptops that were donated to a nonprofit organization I work at. Unfortunately all of them are locked with a bios password. Im looking forward to learning from the experiences of others here and hopefully finding a way to bypass these BIOS passwords to put these laptops to good use.

Sincerely Kabel Salat

[amaiksgm]

Hello everyone! I've used this site before in the distant past and always got great information. Finally joined! A little background about me: I've been in the electronics repair industry for on and off for about 20 years. Mostly TV's and Stereos. Always loved it. Recently started getting back into it, and having tons of fun doing so. I'm fairly well experienced in electronics, a bit of warranty stuff too. I'm hoping I can help out here a bit and learn as well too! Thanks so much to everyone who created this forum, and those that have contributed!
