Tecra M9 - can I access blocked HD password when the motherboard is dead?

I dropped something heavy on the keyboard of my Tecra M9, which ruined the motherboard. I heard tell that I now can't access the data on my hard drive password protected (that is to say, it requires a password before starting upwards) because he needs the motherboard with which this password created. Can anyone say if this is indeed the case, and how to recover the data?

Hello

I think that you don t need the same motherboard in order to remove the HARD drive password.
As Tom said, the HARD drive must be connected to the laptop that supports the BIOS where you can change or delete the HDD password.

Here you can find a good post how to remove the known HARD drive password:

the technician should do the same thing after the HARD drive has been connected to the motherboard.

    There are a lot of options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:
    • Restart the computer with your Windows repair CD, then use system restore to set Windows in a few days (only works if you have recently changed the password).
    • Log on to your account admin to spare, and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you set up an alternative admin account).
    • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
    • Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have taken the time to create such a key file).
    • Use the password indicator (only works if an indicator was created and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password)
    • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)

  • Cannot access the files from the internal hard drive that has been converted to drive external hard after the motherboard is dead

    I can't access the files from an internal hard drive that has been converted to drive external hard after the motherboard is dead. I think that my files are still there, as shown in the volume of the player volume ~ 500 gb which is almost completely full. But I can't access most files, including documents and settings. When I took 'ownership' of the folder, I could open the TI but then it showed everything that was in my documents and settings on the computer file I used to open it, not the documents of the car.

    Uhm... I think the issue here is a misunderstanding of what you watch.

    If you want to access your files from the old hard drive - you need to look in the right place.  If the old system was "Windows 7", "Documents and Settings" is the * wrong * place to look and "Users" would be the place to go.

    You * will * take ownership and change permissions on ALL (you want to propagate to all subfolders/files when do - to save time) in order to get them properly.

    New-->: Windows Vista/7 would have your files located in the directory 'Users' of the root of the drive - and then under your username.

    • \USERS\\Desktop\
    • \USERS\\Downloads\
    • \USERS\\Favorites\
    • \USERS\\Documents\
    • \USERS\\Music\
    • \USERS\\Pictures\
    • \USERS\\Videos\

    ... etc...

    Documents and settings to WIndows Vista/Windows 7 is a symbolic link and would lead to what you see if you tried to use it.

  • How can you download pro Prime Minister when the icon does not exist in the clouds? [was: pr]

    How can you download pro Prime Minister when the iucon doesent exist cloud?

    In order to download the software, your computer must meet the system requirements to run the software.

    http://helpx.Adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/system-requirements-Premiere-Pro.html http://www.Adobe.com/products/premiere/tech-specs.html

    The usual for not being able to download reason is that Premiere Pro (and other video applications such as After Effects) are 64-bit only what they need for a 64-bit computer and a 64-bit operating system.

    If you use a 32-bit computer and operating system, and then you see the icon of Premiere Pro as the software will not work on your computer.

  • Tecra M5: Can not access the internet pages, but can ping in cmd.exe

    Hi all, this is confusing to me.

    I've been happily connected to my WLAN for more than a year without any problems. I recently updated my drivers for the following on my Tecra M5:

    -Intel Pro Wireless adapt
    -Drivers audio Sigmatel
    -nVidia graphics card

    Now, after facilities, everything was fine. However, a few days later, I turned on the laptop and went to IE7 and it cannot display the web page (my homepage is www.google.co.uk). I called my ISP to help and they reported problems on the service, and they gave me the www.google.co.uk ip address I got a response of in cmd.exe. It seems that I can get out on the internet but I can't access the Web pages - it could be a DNS issue?

    I have disabled my A - V and firewall and tried but get the same question. I also tried to restore the PC back more than a month and it did not help either. I'd appreciate any help that anyone can give.

    I also plugged the laptop directly into the router using an ethernet cable, so it's not only a wireless issue either.

    I have installed any other software at all at the moment and the only other thing that got my attention, it's that, in the field of restoration, there a lot of system restore points, which I wasn't expecting to see in the last month. But it could be a Kipper.

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    According to your message, you are not able to connect to internet via LAN and WLan. Is this good?

    Well, in your case I would first check the router settings and re still.
    In addition, you must reset the router.

    Usually, the router assigns the IP address, and therefore you would just plug the laptop LAN cable and then should be able to connect to the internet.
    Please note that the TCP/IP protocol settings must be set to automatic.

    Check everything first!

  • Tecra M5: How to use the HARD drive password when the HARD drive is connected as an external device?

    I have a Toshiba Tecra M5 with MK1032GSX hard disk. I put a bios password and HARD drive password. Every day I turn on my laptop with my password a number only once: unlock the disk and bios. The password screen is before windows starts.

    One day my laptop motherboard is broken, I bring my pc on the Toshiba support center (less disc) and I'm waiting for him (2 months ago). I need to read my date of the disc, but it is locked by password. The drive is a SATA drive, I put it on a desktop computer and I see it in the bios and in windows resource device, but I do not see in the Explorer.

    None of the software I've tried (HDD unlock, atapwd...) will not work. I have my password, I have not forgotten.

    How to read my date? Can you help me?
    Thank you.

  • How can you get pass "Enter password" when you don't know what it is?

    I inherited a Toshiba laptop which has Windows Vista label. The model # begins with PSL, so I was able to determine that it is a Toshiba Satellite model L.

    When I turn on the computer, he asked a password I do not know, nor is it the person who gave me the computer. So, I placed my Windows Vista operating drive in the drive and restarted the computer hoping to reformat the system. But it circumvents the drive and it comes back asking for the password. Can someone help me?

    I assume that you are writing about BIOS password. This password can be removed by Toshiba service only.
    Contact nearest authorized maker Toshiba and allow them to remove this password for you.

    When the password is removed, you will be able to install the operating system and have full access to all the parameters of the laptop.

  • Can't access "Show all downloads" via the "library" Panel

    Top of page where you can click to see the progress of your downloads, there is the option «Show all downloads»

    When I click on 'Show all downloads', it shows me the 'library' with only one option. On the left hand side, I see the option named "all bookmarks". "However, has nothing else where he must also propose 'History,' Downloads ' and 'Tags' alongside"all bookmarks ". So, I can not access my downloads (of course, I can access my downloads through my account, but not what I am referring. I always prefer to verify via firefox, because it is much easier and faster).

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).
