ACER ASPIRE ONE BIOS PASSWORD BACKDOOR MODS
BIOS recovery as stated on BIOS mods website in the “Insyde BIOS Recovery” butĪ) tools from “paragraph 3” mentioned there do not existī) I have BDW.fd and HSW.fd in my BIOS folder from acer (extracted from temp folder) and it seems only 1 is neededĬ) I am not sure it is in any way related to the password issue.Flash some custom BIOS (pure blind black magic), but according to my limited research it doesn’t exist for this model and I don’t even know if it would help.Swap HDD to another one with clnpnwd on it (no spare HDD atm).Acer seems to refuse to assist customers with BIOS password issues(backdoor key) unless you send the laptop to them and pay a $100 fee (I live in a squat eating freegan stuff with zero dollars in my pocket).Flashed latest BIOS from Acer website modifying platform.ini part "Password=0" to "Password=1".Disassembled the whole device to see a soldered CMOS battery at the very bottom knowing that:Ī) I don’t have much experience soldering (though I do have a knowledgeable neighbor)ī) a reset might not work in this particular case because of EEPROM (from what I have read).Tried to boot USB with clnpnwd (boot menu on F12 or del is disabled in BIOS it seems), also tried to remove the HDD to force USB boot but ended up with “No boot device”.
ACER ASPIRE ONE BIOS PASSWORD BACKDOOR SOFTWARE
(Deprecated software last developed for win XP that obviously didn’t work on win 10) Downloaded Acer Empowering Technology+Acer eSettings Management for password drop.Entered a wrong password three times, getting a code and putting it into online generators.Problem: BIOS supervisor password that is forgotten.Įxperience with BIOS: Close to zero, and I also don't happen to have handy hardware programmer tools for this purpose at hand.
