I'm helping a friend fix his daughter's dell/toshiba laptop that suddenly started asking for a bios password.
Already tried removing the cmos to no effect.
Tried a couple of other things on the internet to no avail so I yanked the hard drive and ran cmospwd Which gave me the following output:
Award 6.0 [ A fjG ][][T b F ;][]Award backdoor [ ]
Which leads me to my question. What's up with the brackets? Are these three different passwords? I'm doubtful about the backdoor, but what's up with the other two? Anyone with a little more experience able to help before I put the machine back together, because it is in a lot of pieces at the moment...
