Not sure how I got access to the OP, but I did notice the "commentas" typo in the warning message.

I flagged it as 'Inappropiate' because the Service Tag was showing.  However it was Moderated within minutes, so I removed my tag.

Thoughts anyone.

This looks like another AI Bot training thread.  I had nearly the same response as anne_droid initially did to a thread where posters keep asking the same question over and over without reading the thread.

Some Optiplex models have a jumper on the motherboard that will remove the BIOS system Password.

You can find manuals for your system here:

I was going to close that thread I mentioned above, but I haven't ran back into it lately.
