Re: Microsoft Surface Pro 3 UEFI password

I could have [I]sworn[/I] that somewhere in this message thread I saw an image that highlighted the code immediately after 'AMITSESetup', and on mine, everything right after it was 00's. In searching back through now, I see that the image showed it was the data [B]after[/B] the 00's that was what I should have been using. If I take the data after that, which is exactly what you quoted AAAC, popping that into the spreadsheet immediately spat back that cursed '1234'!!!

AAAC, I bow to your magic Thank you again!!!Re: Microsoft

Re: Microsoft Surface Pro 3 UEFI password



Oh FFS... I definitely don't remember setting it to that! There are a few passwords I reserve for BIOS stuff, and that's definitely not one of them! Thanks so much for this AAAC! I will poke back into the .bin file to find that data, and figure out where I was going wrong....

Re: Microsoft Surface Pro 3 UEFI password



Yeah, didn't have much luck there. While I could see some GUID data, it didn't appear to be enough characters for the spreadsheet to decrypt. I think I'm just going to post my BIOS dump here, and profusely thank whoever manages the magic, since they're obviously a much better wizard than I I'll still keep trying though, since I hate not being able to figure stuff like this out Thanks for your help AAAC!

L.F...

Re: Microsoft Surface Pro 3 UEFI password



I did that. There were three locations with "AMITSESetup", all three were full of 00's. I will have a look at that tool you suggested when I get home from work tonight....

Re: Microsoft Surface Pro 3 UEFI password

Hi folks,

I have a Surface Pro 3 that I can (kinda) get into the BIOS, but most of the options are greyed out. So I'm guessing that I put a password on it at some point (bought the thing used off eBay a number of years ago), but I'll be damned if I can remember what it is now. I used the fptw64.exe tool to extract the BIOS to a .bin file, but when I open the file in HXD, the location for the data I'm looking for (after "AMITSESetup") is filled with 00's. I have tried a few times, same results each time. Any ideas?
