Sometimes we need to acquire the BIOS password for a particular machine, either because we wanted to break into that freaking school CD driver or because somebody is so ignorant that s/he forgot the BIOS password.
Using a program named CmosPwd, you can extract the passwords of most BIOS ever used on earth. I have tried it both at the computer in my school and also at home, and CmosPwd works wonderfully. CmosPwd is an open source program and has ready binaries for Windows, Linux, and DOS.
To use it, you need an administrator privilege (or, because there is also a Linux version, you may want to boot to a LiveCD for root access). Since it only has a command line interface, use Command Prompt or Terminal or whatever. In the Windows version, you need to install a driver (this is why you need administrator privilege) by executing command ioperm -i. Then execute cmospwd_win (for Windows) and tada! A lot of garbage will appear (for each BIOS supported), but there will be one line which corresponds to your BIOS that has a legible output. And that is the password.

Is it really necessary to be applied in our lab since "the penguin" has long gone ? 'Nothing' interrupts our activity anymore... Or do you have any other plan ? ;)
Of course it is necessary! How can we use the flashdisks since USB support has been blocked in the BIOS!?!?
(unfamiliar with this topic? "penguin" is a former teacher that always wants to take the freedom from our computer lab by setting up passwords and everything. He dropped last year but the remnants of his work still exists)
Yes, Master. I forgot that stupid thing. He (or someone else ? CMIIW) has blocked the USB Port and also the CD Driver. Okay, CD Driver problem is easy to handle since you have administrator privilege. About USB Port, I do agree. It's obvious that Flash Disk and other USB stuffs is our most simple, efficient storage device, isn't it ?
P.S. : I have my own idea about Consultative Assembly. Check it out in my blog.

I see you guys are having fun with a school network...mmmm how i remember the days i started hacking in school. Anyways...you really wanna have some fun =P...install a free key logger on some computers on the network..or all computers using an automated script. Why free key logger? because most are detected by antivirus. So anyways, you will enjoy this trust me ;)...a lot of info, passwords, credit cards (be careful la!), private info etc...and NEVER forget...ALWAYS log in as someone else while checking logs and make sure you clear your trace!!! dont want sysadmin doing a checkup one day and finding a huge .log file ;).. Oh regarding the BIOS, my school used to have a chip that resets the settings to original..no matter what..even if you save a file on the desktop..the best way to hack that or a bios..is pull that shit out. :) lol dont need to stress on it. enjoy and happy hacking!!

Hello I forgot my BIOS password.
I do have Computer Administration Password and I can access laptop fine.
I want to change BIOS settings but can't.
Please help me,
is there a keygen or program to get BIOS master password or resset?
Don't want to open up laptop.
I have service tag # and express service code.
Any information would Help...
A. By Using the Motherboard Jumper:
In most motherboards CMOS battery is soldered, which makes it difficult to remove the battery. In this case we use another method.
Almost all motherboards contain a jumper that can clear all CMOS settings along with the BIOS password. The location of this jumper varies depending upon the motherboard brand. You should read your motherboard manual to check its location. If you don't have the manual then look for the jumpers near the CMOS battery. Most of the manufacturer label the jumper as CLR, CLEAR, CLEAR CMOS, etc.
When you find the jumper, look carefully. There will be 3 pins and the jumper will be joining the center pin to either left or right pin. What you need to do, is remove the jumper and join the center pin to the opposite pin. e.g. if the jumper joins center pin to left pin, then remove it and join center pin to right pin. Now wait for a few seconds and then again remove the jumper and join the center pin to left pin.
Make sure to turn the PC off before opening the cabinet and resetting the jumper.
B. By Using Software:
I have found that BIOS/CMOS Password Recovery Tool is the most effective.:
BIOS/CMOS Password Recovery Tool is a program that works instantly to remove any lost or forgotten BIOS/CMOS password. Simply boot your PC to DOS and execute the program, and get access to forgotten BIOS/CMOS passwords in just seconds

I have a linux machine and I was able to get the cracks from CMOSPWD but the cracks did not work or I am not doing it write. I have a Phoenix bios which I have no idea what version. I am trying to run the password for the Configure Setup password so I can set the Admin password for the bios. Maybe I am not understanding the cracks here are the cracks:
Phoenix 1.00.09.AC0 (1994) []
Phoenix a486 1.03 err
Phoenix 1.04 [][ ]
Phoenix 1.10 A03 CRC pwd err
Phoenix 4 release 6 (User) []
Phoenix 4.0 release 6.0 []
Phoenix 4.05 rev 1.02.943 [][]
Phoenix 4.06 rev 1.13.1107 []
Phoenix A08, 1993 [N 2 ][1F ]
What does it mean by [] or [][ ]?
I also tried to get to the motherboard in my Dell D800 but I could not get it open to reset the pins.
Use the MIT Reset bios service at www.mastermindit.biz

I used http://thepassworddoctor.com - Its the only website I could find which recovered my password instantly after payment, all of the other sites wanted 2 - 48 hours to recover it. Plus its the cheapest at only $20.
