hi guys
my t61 just went tits up
updated bios and now i get password prompt
ive read up and managed to dump the eeprom
loaded it into IBMtools 2.1 lite but not showing the passy
i can see some ascii text so i know its dumped ok
ive checked the lines where it says the password is kept
but its all jargon
so thinking it encrypted
any1 got any ideas or tools
thanks
dave

This might help you.
But be warned this can be dangerous.If you are not capable of doing this right dont try it.

Try decode it with IBMpass if you get RF, it's TCPA locked, you will need a patched eeprom dump and a eeprom writer.
Good Luck
Lenovo T61 save the keypass in a P24S08 EEPROM Chip (24RF08 clone) .
Steps:
1) Dismantle the Laptop, the EEPROM Chip located on the MOBO
T61 EEPROM Location
T61 EEPROM Location closer
2) Use a serial interface Reader and the R24RF08 program
>> R24RF08 download
3 Read the eeprom dump password with IBMpass 2.1
>> IbmPass2.1 download
The interface Schema
>> i2cprog pdf download
Have a nice Hacking

ibmpass 2.1 don't work - password in eeprom is:
E3 D9 5E A8 F9 40 99 3E
it (programm) have not valid solution
for previous: I have T61P
I got T400, i managed to get hex dump from P24SO8 -- but turns out password in line 0x380 is encripted by some sort of TCPA circut. allservice.ro offers p24SO8 modified hex file, but they ask $55. I like to have some hex dump with unencripted passwords to reverse enginer it myown.
Type message whith 388-38f data (like me) , I'll try decode
this string.
Who read 24RF08 UPA or diffrent programmer this eeprom ?
ibmpass 2.1 don't work - password in eeprom is:
C1 C2 26 60 94 28 A6 15
