Lock BIOS X140e
Hello!
I am 55 of the Thinkpad x140e deployment in a school, and I want to be able to lock the BIOS so that students will not be able to boot from other devices or other changes in the BIOS. I wonder if anyone knows of an app that allows me to lock the BIOS without having to do it manually on each machine. I'm their imagery with the same picture, so if there is an application that can be put on the image beforehand, it would be ideal. Someone at - it run in a similar situation or you know any solution?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!
Lenovo has some scripts (and the documentation that comes with it) to the configuration of the BIOS via WMI available here:
http://support.Lenovo.com/us/en/documents/ht100612
The X140e is not listed as a model of care, but it might be worth trying anyway.
How you deploy the image? If you use something like MDT or SCCM, you would create a task that runs the script as part of the imaging process.

OK, so my first HARD drive news was bricked because I didn't know that a locked BIOS would automatically lock a new drive. I know now...
Rule 1: a LOCKED bios will lock (read: brick) a new HARD drive
So, what about the two rule. Would be a HDD then the lockout a BIOS otherwise Virgin locked?Inquiring minds want to know - (mine, anyway. Hard drives get expensive when you have to buy them in bulk!)

I is a computer technology way back in retirement now and my girlfriend son has a Dell Inspiron N5110 and she got the trinkets on the bios and some how locked bios and asks the password service tag. So here I am stuck and cannot lock this thing, she never recorded and the warranty expired, so I need to know what I should do to get this master password to unlock. Since she never recorded I advanced and recorded in my name and I am sure that this is not proof of ownership, but I did anyway. so if someone can tell me now that it will cost me for a lot for this code I would appreciate,
Thank you
Mellow52WHAT? IS DELL IN NEEED OF $$$? THEY WANTED IN FACT 20 DOLLARS FOR A SIMPLE PASSWORD... IT IS FAKE SO MANY WAY... BUT I WILL REFRAIN MYSELF TO BE * % $! @, MERRY X-MAS TO U TOO DELL
Dell has only your "word" that this laptop is yours. So first proof of ownership.
Since the PC is out of warranty, Yes, you will pay as if you would pay Honda when you are out of warranty. Stop being childish.

Hello
Your laptop is to produce a code hexadecimal halt which is stored in the ram as a 'one stop' and is recalculated after a reboot. This indicates that you have a FRIEND bios later and unfortunately none of the current code generators will work - surprisingly, you can always remove power on password of the machine by removing the cell RTC (leave the connected Power Board) then hold down the power button for 60 seconds before reinserting the RTC.
The bad news is that the RTC may be on the 'wrong' side of the system board, so it will take some disassembly.

BIOS of my laptop is way out of date. I downloaded the last being, but the update failed. The reason seems to be that the BIOS is locked i.e. modifications are disabled. It doesn't seem to be a BIOS password so I can enter the fine BIOS settings, but no changes can be made. The laptop works very well in many ways, it would be nice to have updated. The same problem exists with the on-board controller program that I downloaded it, too. Any ideas, please? (I'm under XP Home SP3) Thank you.
What you have on this machine, it's probably a supervisor password. That's why you can get, but can't make changes.
Once the CMOS battery dies X 22 will become a brick.
Forum rules don't allow password cracking technical discussion so here almost everything, I can say on the subject outside the "good luck".
