Hei kaikki

minä olen Jarmo Äijö. Tulen Suomesta Tampereelta ja puuhastelen elektroniikan yhdessä kanssa omaksi iloksi, toisten murheeksi ja ajankuluksi. milloin onnistun ilokseni saamaan jotain aikaan.

Löysin tämän foorumin kun puhelimen Dell Latitude 5410 joka onBIOS Järjestelmän valvojan salsanassa ja salasana kateissa. BBRFBC3-8FC8. Pystyn käyttää kärsiani kyllä mutta bois päivitys ei onnistu ja se on murheeni.

Tervehdys kaikille ja onnistun saamaan koneeni kokonaan auki.

Hello everyone

I am Jarmo Äijö. I come from Tampere, Finland, and tinker with electronics together for my own joy, for the sorrow of others and to pass the time. when I happily manage to get something done.

I found this forum when the phone Dell Latitude 5410, which is in the BIOS administrator password and the password is missing. BBRFBC3-8FC8. I can use my tablet, but the Bois update doesn't work and that's my problem.

Hello everyone and I manage to get my machine fully unlocked.

Hello Everybody.
Glad to be here. I'm a rookie modder, learning soldering and basic electronics along with our kids - so we can have some off-time from digital screens - and then we land up on a digital screen at BadCaps - lol.
Current projects are to un-mess our daughters old t450s bios which has lost its svp and repair some game old console controllers.
Thanks

I haven't been on forums for quite some while, but after a lot of search relating to trying to turn my old Thinkpad X230T into a drawing tablet, this is where I ended up somehow. And it was quite a journey, the amount of fake sites trying to get you to pay to download some specs I need to be able to confirm a single set of pin layouts is, quite something...

I've been tinkering with electronics for quite a while, apart from the first PC which was a family computer, on which my first notable game I remember was Earth Siege 2, I built all of my computers, and I took apart and replaced everything at this point in my Thinkpad as well. I'm looking into getting some ARM SOCs for some future projects in the hopefully somewhat-near future, but currently it's time to retire my old Thinkpad as a convertible, the processor really doesn't like large canvases no matter how much I try to draw on it, and just take the screen out of it and use it only as a drawing tablet. Even if it means that I can't use it standalone, it would be a cheap and fun way to get a drawing tablet that has it's own screen, compared to the multiple hundreds of pounds I would have to pay for a similarly sized tablet that has it's own screen.
I also have a Wacom Intuos S, which was gifted to me quite some time ago now, but after multiple years of digital drawing, I would really like to have a drawing tablet that I can just, look at, instead of a separate screen, while I'm drawing.

And I also have a good few number of programming projects, too, that I would like to start working on soon. I've been programming for about 2 decades now, and would like to get into making something interesting.

I never really stuck to a single online name for long, but ElectricDoodler will do now for a while. Nice to meet you all, and hopefully, I might stick around.
