T61 - HDD password is not editable - HELP

Hello

I have two T61 with 2.27 installed latest Bios.

In one of them is a HDD SSD from Crucial I chose to protect as usual with a

Drive HARD PW via the Bios. Now, I tried to change the disk to do this, I tried to release the IPL.

This possible isn´t somehow, I can´t retype or not change either.

The HD PW option is gray, it says user & Master but I can´t change all the options.

I also tried typing the PW and then, space, no effect at all.

No one knows what wrong with this PW or the disk, I tried on the two T61s.

Hi and welcome to the forum!

HARD drive password can be changed using special ThinkPad, it has been on.

Put the drive into the ThinkPad allowing you to set the password on the HARD drive and see the following posts: -.

    The only safe option is to perform a factory restore. If you do not, then you are likely to be confronted with a machine that is seriously infected or was hacked. Have a look here for instructions:

  • I'm using a MAC with the current software. I am trying to download Adobe Flash Player. My password does not work. I ' v reset my password and restarted my computer. I need help with my password at the bottom of load.

    I'm on a MAC and my password does not work, I reset my password and I can not even download Adobe Flash Player.

    This password is presented by your operating system and is designed to prevent you from accidentally installing the software.

    If it comes to your personal computer and you don't need a password to connect to the computer when it first starts, you can probably leave the password blank and click OK to go to this prompt.  If it comes to your personal computer and your normal password does not work, make sure that CAPS LOCK SHIFT is off, and then type the password carefully.

    If this is your work machine and he asks an administrator password, well, you will need to have a conversation with your computer friendly.

    If you are still puzzled, you may need to reset the password on your Mac:

  • Satellite Pro 6100 displays a "Built-in HDD Password" message whenever I start

    Hello, my computer displays a "Built-in HDD password" message whenever I start. I never set any password on the hard drive in the past, although in desperation to try to get the laptop running, I tried all possible passwords but there is no answer, I would be grateful for any help or advice. What should I do?

    Well, I put t know what you did on your laptop, but as far as I know it's not possible to remove the HARD drive password.
    In this case, the HARD drive is not usable, and therefore a new HARD disc has to be ordered.

  • Administrator Bios password does not work on HP 4420 s XT940UT #ABA Windows 7 64-bit

    Someone please help me with this!

    I bought this laptop from a friend (have receipt) who sell it to me because the screen was cracked and spidered all out when you the activated. And everywhere he went to ask to get the screen fixed it is very expensive ($250 - $350) and he said that it would be just a newer laptop. So he sold me this which is a model Probook of HP4420s XT940UT #ABA. About a week after I bought this Probook friend who sold it to died me suddenly. It was sudden and terrible. Some time later, I had the time of the purchase of the LCD for this model, replace it myself (was very easy actually) and booted up the laptop with a new installation of Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Edition. After installing all my software and using the laptop for a while now, I wanted to get into the Bios that I've never done. So when I started the laptop, click ESC, then F10 to enter the BIOS, there were two places to enter a password is different then all Dell I've ever owned. One was mine I guees I put in place using HP protect tools and the other says BIOS/administrator. Well I can do most of the changes with the one I put in place with my password but my password does not work, nor can I get in some very significant changes that I wanted to do using Bios/administrator, as kindling the LoJack, namely the blocking of the hard drive etc. , turning on turbo boost, fan, etc. Well, since the person I bought is no longer with us, there is no one to turn to the answer to this question of administrator/BIOS password / problem.  I tried to take battery Rtype and restore that way, didn't work. Several times, I called HP and they sent me to a BIOS page to download the same BIOS, I have already, would not let me install it. When I bring up the command prompt and do not put anything in BiosConfigureUtility.exe happens, said just a wrong command. When I try to enter the BIOS through the C: file in the files of the SSM, I reach the BiosConfigUtility.exe file, click on it to open it and it just flashes a way small order page to fast to read what it says. I would like to have complete control over my laptop thinking I have a lot of time and money invested in it now. The problem would have something to do with installing the 64 bit version of Windows 7 instead of the 32 bits I suppose initially that he came with? I have all the manuals and they say that this laptop is compatible with Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit Pro is what I installed. I'm mixed responses from many different people on this and would like an answer from HP someone who has experience in dealing with the BIOS in the Probooks business models if possible please. I really like this Probook and have since become big fan of most HP, Dell and Lenovo.  I intend to buy two probooks, one for my wife and one for my daughter because this one is like a MacBook, but better.  Thank you for reading this and I hope someone can help.

    Model: HP Probook 4420 s

    Type: XT940UT #ABA

    Operating system: Windows 7 Ultimate

    BIOS version: 68AHHH Ver.F.20

    SM BIOS Version: 2.6

    Hardware Extraction layer: Version 6.1.7601.17514

    Once you open a session with the service the customer of HP one case of pension, they will provide once the utility you and steps to execute it. who can capture the UUID. BTW - UUID is a unique ID for each machine (16 digits or more) stored in the BIOS itself.

    Once the results of the utility (UUID and other info) in the log file, shared with HP, they can generate a key file (SMC) to reset.

    Well, depertment of technical support can help you in it, no need to ask for anyone in particular or the Department.

    It will be useful.

    Hello

    I have been using my Windows 7 Home Edition premium on a network including Server 2003 and two machines on XP.

    Now, on Monday morning, I start my Windows 7 and the user name or password is not accepted and there is no way I can connect to files on the server?  What's wrong?
    I connect XP machines without problem, but Win7 does NOT work.
    Any ideas?
    The machines are all on the same workgroup.
    Thank you

  • my master password does not work, WHY?

    I used my master password for quite awhile. Today when I put it in it does not work. HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN? I saw the the way to remove it, but then I lose about 28 login and password for all my financial sites. Why the P/W does not work? AND why would you if it can FAIL. Y at - it another way around this in addition to a total deletion of all my other passwords. I tried to restart my computer a couple of times to see if it would fix itself, but nothing helped.

    Have you tried to close and restart Firefox or restart the computer to see if it have an impact?

    What security (firewall, antivirus) software do you have?

    If the MP password does not work and is not accepted if you get a prompt to connect to the software security device, then it is likely that the signons3.txt file got damaged or replaced by an older version.

    You have a backup of files in the Firefox profile folder?
