No hash, nothing, only "The password was entered incorrectly three times. The setup is locked and cannot be unlocked until the system is rebooted" I have removed the BIOS battery, all settings was lost but the password is still set. | |

Member: 1876548 Status: Offline Thanks Meter: 0 | just to clarify before I try this again, the HHD password is the password I chose for admin and can't remember right? Just making sure its not some factory thing...I'm clueless...lol and if I try these codes and they don't work...am I locked out for good? Is the BIOS code a one time thing or can I use it multiple times? Its the only thing that has worked so far....should I try harder to remember my admin password? |

Not meaning to be rude but it sounds like you need to talk to Dell Support about this. They can be contacted here: Hardware Chat | |

Member: 1876944 Status: Offline Thanks Meter: 0 | I've got a dell Inspiron n4030 (service tag: bndhym1) with a bios password. Yanking the bios battery didn't clear it (unfortunate because it was a freaking pain to get too), any help would be greatly appreciated! |

Member: 1855998 Status: Offline Thanks Meter: 192 | Generating password from generic error code doesn't work and already gave you ones generated from service tag. So am afraid you're stuck with buying new hard drive. Course, could try Dell. |
