You have forgot the password of your BIOS and now it is not easy to recover your BIOS password, because it is difficult for you to prove that you are the actual owner of a system. You’ll need to create a recovery cd then boot from it. The system will guide you with instructions for using the recovery system, restoring your laptop to factory default. You can also find a recovery software from internet. It will find your lost data, but for BIOS password I’m not sure is any software available on the internet or not. You can check it online.
Don’t worry you can find your BIOS password easily, you have to follow some steps for that:
Turn on your laptop and you will see the BIOS password box, now press enter three times. Your system will disabled and your laptop display a 5 number code. You have to send that 5 number code to acer website, they have a master code for your laptop. You just have to use a removal service and write the code in below given form. If this works for you, great!!. If not, then visit to a service center they will solve your problem in better way.
If you have forgot the password of your BIOS system, then I think you can get it from password recovery but not sure. I’ve never heard about BIOS password recovery software but you try to find out. If you can’t get the password recovery software then try to install a new BIOS, well, I don’t know how to install it but you can find on internet. If this does’nt work for you then you can go to acer website they have a master BIOS password for every model . you have to give them a code of your BIOS which come after entering a 3 time in a password box. After that they will send you the master password and you can unlock your BIOS then.
