    Olwyn,

    Thank you for using the DellTalk forum.

    You need to contact tech support directly for information
    on how to bypass the bios password.
    Tech support must verify that the system has not been stolen, and you either own the system or know the person that owns it.

    You can contact Desktop Phone support at the following number:
    800-624-9896 Ext:6-6955
    You can also E-mail Desktop support, using the following web address:

    You can contact *Laptop* support using the following information.

    Did you try just hitting enter? It might ask for a password but none has been loaded... Just a thought.
