I'd be interested to know if this one can be cracked, because I think it is virtually impossible....

Very strange why there are BIOS passwords in the first place, I really don't see the point.
In recent years, the level of security is so high that even advanced hackers can't get into these machines.
Mine is an old work laptop- and even they can't remember what the password is supposed to be !!!! Very silly.
Hi
trying to find my Dell Inspiron 3521 laptop BIOS password.
Service Tag is 78P7RZ1
That service tag is the code I get when I put in wrong password three times. The screen shows me that code and it is labeled as Service Tag. It also matches the Service Tag (S/N) that I see on the sticker on the outside of the laptop. And nowhere does it ever add a suffix after those 7 characters. Is it possible for it to be 7 only and no suffix?
Also, when I input wrong password three times, it gives me that Service Tag as I said, but it also gives me another code right above that labeled System Disable. This one is 46330F94AAF6E438.
Any chance you all can calculate the password for this from that?
need the 4 digit BIOS rev code after your service tag; ie: 1D3B, 1F5A, 1F66, etc.

Nothing is impossible, if you have determination;

after entering the 16 char code, you need to hold down left CTRL key whilst pressing ENTER.

Hi Riff Flanger, thanks for replying to my post above. You said you still need the suffix, but I've never seen anything except what I gave you before as the service tag... As I said up there,

Is it possible for it to be 7 only and no suffix?
Any idea where it would show me this suffix if there is one? I have looked everywhere but never saw this.
Damn, I knew it couldn't be that simple! Nothin ever is...
But appreciate ur help anyway and if you know any more about where to find that (or how to calculate it without it?) please let me know!

THANKS A LOT!!
Hey,
I'm really not too certain here since all Dell BIOS that I've seen so far have a 4digit post-fixed code that denotes the version of the BIOS firmware.
Since this code is specific to the firmware version running, it only appears on-screen when the crypto-based service manager is invoked. Could you send me a photo of your lappy screen displaying the service tag? Perhaps then I can figure it out.
In the meantime, here's the verious bypass keys based on your service tag with various 4digit codes; try each one by carefully entering the 16 digits and then hold left CTRL while pressing ENTER.
Dear Riff Flanger-
WOW, a massive thanks man ! This works. To be honest, I really did not believe that it would be possible ? Really appreciate your efforts.
Even though I have no further need for a Bios password, I would be really interested to know how you do it- just from a personal interest point of view. I don't want to know your secrets of course I just think its amazing that this can be done. I assume you have worked out a mathematical formula of some sort and can generate codes that way ? But how on Earth does someone even begin to do that ?
Thanks again for your brilliant help here.
Cheers.

haha! thank YOU for taking the time to say thx!
No secrets, just a good knowledge of assembly language; find the correct firmware update file from the Dell website, open it in a disassembler called IDA https://www.hex-rays.com/products/ida/ and then work thru it for four weeks whilst taking grief from your Mrs.! haha - it's not quite as difficult as I originally thought it just takes time and perseverance!
PS: Big-up Lunar Jetman! He actually helped me seduce my first girlfriend back when I was young! What a guy!
I am trying remove a BIOS admin password for a Dell E6420. The service tag number is: F0GRMS1-1D3B. Do you have a PayPal email address I can forward a nominal fee to?
