  • How to identify the BIOS password on the computer you're logged into?

    I need a Bios cracker that you can run on the computer once *someone who knows the password* logged you into the Admin account.

    a BIOS password and the local operating system's security permissions have basically nothing to do with one another. while some BIOS cracking tools may require low-level hardware access that only certain privliged users can do, i am not aware of any BIOS crackers that work anymore. even back in the day when there were such apps for Award and AMI bioses, they didn't work very well and would be flagged by almost all antivirus products on the market.

    if you have such direct access to a computer just pop the case open and flip the CMOS reset jumper.
    "I'll admit I had an OiNK account and frequented it quite often… What made OiNK a great place was that it was like the world's greatest record store… iTunes kind of feels like Sam Goody to me. I don't feel cool when I go there. I'm tired of seeing John Mayer's face pop up. I feel like I'm being hustled when I visit there, and I don't think their product is that great. DRM, low bit rate, etc... OiNK it existed because it filled a void of what people want."
