Password Authentication Problem
I have a DELL Latitude D820. I will not allow me to enter the BIOS Set-Up unless I can provide a System or Administrator password. Stated below is the error message displayed on my Desktop when I turn-on the power. It display this message for about 2 minates and then it shuts – off automatically. Dose anyone have a solution to this problem?
error message display:
This computer system 5328HB1- 595B , is protected by a password authentication system. You cannot access the data on this computer without the correct password.
Please type in the system or administrator password and press < Enter >.

If the password has been lost, then the only way to get it remedied, is to call Dell, pay a service charge and prove ownership to obtain an override password.
Also, the best section to post this in, would be the Laptop forum HERE, this is for Desktop Hardware.
