Acer bios password
Hi I have an Acer 5420-5687 and there is no OS installed on the laptop. I tried to boot up my windows vista cd to install it but it wouldn't boot, i decided to go into my bios to see the boot order but it asked for a bios password, it has a PHOENIX bios so i tried all the default passwords for it but none worked. I also removed the motherboard battery for about 24 hrs but the bios still asks for a password. If anyone can tell me how i can boot something up that will remove the password or find something on my motherboard to clear it. Thanks

Re: Acer bios password
i already tried pressing enter and it doesn't work after a few attempts it comes up with the message "system disabled" i bought this off best buy auction so i have no way of finding out the password.

Re: Acer bios password
I am very sorry ..... but our forum rules prohibit us from assisting with password problems as we are unable to verify you are the rightful owner
maybe we can assist you later with another problem
