N5340 bios password forgotten
Hi, I just rebuilt a HP N5340 for a friend, well he hasn't used it in a year or so and he put a password on the bios. I tried some "back door" passwords but none of them worked. This model HP laptop uses ACPI bios, does anyone know how to get past this problem without paying HP to "fix" it or buy another chip from ebay. Thanks!

and before you buy 'another chip' (i suppose you mean a replacement bios chip) and just to keep you away from a huge disappointment : the passwords are not stored in there.
