computer riddle

29-01-2008, 10:40 PM

here is a riddle for all u computer geniuses. suppose u have a laptop with windows running on it. And suppose u have a password enabled in the bios. lets say the password is "password" . and also the letter 's' on ur keyboard is not functioning. now u have just booted ur computer and its asking u for the password in the bios. so now the question is what is the best way to log in? I know there can be many possible answers to this question but I'm looking for the best possible solution. I'll post my answer after 10 replies.

take out the battery, leave alone for a couple of years till the CMOS battery dies out and then boot up

or get urself a USB k/b....

Will restore the defaults work the magic?

chesss · 29-01-2008, 11:17 PM

nice question....
maybe one of those alt+numpad keys??

**MetalheadGautham** · 29-01-2008, 11:20 PM

OK, if your laptop has support built in for virtual touch keyboard, use it.

Faun · 29-01-2008, 11:21 PM

i doubt usb keyboard will work

Clear CMOS memory by short circuiting JP2 jumper
or
take out the battery, then plunge it back

chesss · 29-01-2008, 11:27 PM

dOm1naTOr · 30-01-2008, 12:12 AM

but will tha ascii combo work in bios? too lazy to try

ring_wraith · 30-01-2008, 07:49 AM

Yeah, and i don;t think that copy paste will work in BIOS either. Best option is to short circuit CMOS.

Pathik · 30-01-2008, 07:55 AM

I wd hav resetted the cmos.

chicha · 30-01-2008, 04:46 PM

well if the 's' does not work at the bios then there is no chance that it will work when the os boots.

I have 2 options, depending on how old the laptop is. if its relative new i would get it serviced, else i will use my BOSH on it.

chesss · 30-01-2008, 06:58 PM

just tried alt+115 does work
