      Ya. you cant recover your setp password(as of what i know). You have only 1 option left with u i.e remove ur CMOS batterry for a minute & then re-place it there & reboot. You can even change the CMOS battery. Its cheap around 40-50$

        Thank you very much for your information. As far as I know that for the desktop computer we could change the CMOS battery or change the jumper setting based on the mainboard configuration. But for this case, it is the laptop computer. So I don't know how to remover the battery of the CMOS from the laptop. Do you have any more comment???

                    Remove BIOS battery then back battery again in restart ur laptop u will not see any password (BIOS password) if u have administrator or user password to login in ur laptop then u should hack it or the long way is to reinstall OS PC.

                      I got my Dell bios master password and Hard Drive (HDD) master password. They also do this for HP, Compaq, Fujitsu, Acer, Sony and Samsung laptops and desktops. Just go to http://www.mastermindit.biz/freedellbios.html Send your Dell model and service tag and they will email back your bios master password and or HDD master password for your Dell computer.
