Dell Tech Support won't provide BIOS unlock password for Precision M4400
I have a Precision M4400 and somehow the BIOS admin password is locked and I cannot access the BIOS settings anymore.I called Dell Support twice, spent a lot a time waiting on the phone, also waited weeks for a resolution to my request, and finally they won't provide a password even if I am willing to pay the fee for that.
Does anyone know an alternative solution?
Thanks.

If you can't verify your ownership of the machine, they won't unlock it -- if that's the case, you have just one option: replace the mainboard. If you do that, be ABSOLUTELY sure the seller guarantees there's no password on the replacement you buy.

I am the owner of the machine, and I can provide all the info needed to prove that.
