Know the password of HDD, want to change
Aspire AO756. I put a HDD password in the Bios. It works very well. Now I want to change it, but in the Bios, the hard drive password option is grayed out and has the word 'frozen' next to it. So, how can I change the password if I know that the current is?
Here's what you need to do:
- CREATE a supervisor password. Save the changes and reboot.
- Go back into the BIOS and CLEAR the supervisor password and exit saving changes.
- Shut down the system completely.
- Reboot the system after he completely turned off.
- Go into the BIOS and you should be able to clear the HARD drive password.
Please let me know how it works for you.

computer inheirerted of father and you want to restore the factory installed vista system but do not know the password of admin fathers
Hello
You should not have a password to reinstall Vista.
Microsoft prohibits any help given in these Forums for you help bypass or "crack" passwords lost or forgotten.
Here's information from Microsoft, explaining that the policy:
There are several methods to reinstall Vista.
There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.
You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.
They should do this for a small fee.
To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:
You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:
How to change the Boot order in BIOS:
http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm
And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.
The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)
Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.
Ask them to the proper key sequence.
Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.
If this happens, you may need to try this instead:
You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.
Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs
Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:
"How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html
And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.
And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.
"How to activate Vista normally and by Activation of the phone '

Recover photos from iphone, knowing the password
Hello
I'll try to keep it short.
1. my Iphone 4S has got a broken screen
2. I have not used for 1 month (aprox)
3. after replacing the screen, the date has been reset to January 1, 1970
4. the phone is off "try again in 24,000,000 minutes.
Facts in brief.
-I do not know the password
-J' tried to disconnect the battery - same date
-It is not sync with iTunes (received a new computer)
-I don't have the old computer to Apple/Lockdown ID
-J' tried an update and it worked (I now have IOS 9.3), but it is still blocked
-J' tried insert/remove different SIMs and reset (hard/soft)
Is there a way to fix the clock or recover my photos and records? I have some that I really care and I am willing to spend a reasonable amount to get them.
Thank you very much.
Alex
If you really iOS 9.3, this issue should have been resolved.
What is Apple/Lockdown?
How you did update a locked phone?
There seems to be some made missing. Are what 'lock' you referring?

I get the windows login screen and I do not know the password for administrators
I accidentally deleted my account and when the computer starts and I get the windows login screen and I do not know the administrators password. Also how can I reinstall windows when I got a disc when I brought my laptop. Thank you, Lorraine
Thanks for getting back to me. I sold my old laptop to my son-in-law, and he asked me to remove my name from the computer off so that my name wasn't on the screen all the time. so I deleted the profile of cook of lorraine and made one for him, but I didn't give it a password. then I realized what I had to do (I got Lorraine where time is on the bottom of the screen), but was unable to highlight to remove it without a mouse. so I plugged a mouse, but the computer does not read, then I restarted the computer. When I restarted, all I could get was the windows login screen.
then I typed in the name son-nlaws and they said that he was kidnapped, tyoed in mine and got the same and then typed in Administrator, but did not know the password. I have since reinstalled windows. XP Professional would not install saying a file was missing, so I installed xp family and is working again. He just has to click on what edition it wants to run. Professional XP of course happen just with the display of connection... but it can use again.Thank you once again, Lorraine -
