I bought a used Dell Latitude E4310 that I want to replace Windows7 on with Fedora-22. Unfortunately the BIOS is locked and I do not have the admin password for it. A phone call to Dell was unproductive and none of the passwords offered in an on-line application work. Does anyone know what I can do to access this computer. I can return it, bought through Newegg, but it looks good so far, in new condition and the price is right. It even has a working battery.
I considered opening it and removing the bios battery which I assume would return it to the default conditions which I believe is no password set.
Any suggestions appreciated, Bob -- Bob Goodwin - Zuni, Virginia, USA http://www.qrz.com/db/W2BOD box10 FEDORA-22/64bit LINUX XFCE -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
