Type in the code for that date.and boom password removed. Consult the list of recovery codes I found online. Turn it on and press alt+r to bring up the recovery password option and now the date is. So about 20 minutes later and 3 missing screws later I had the laptop taken apart and back together. open up this laptop to remove the CMOS battery to reset the internal clock. call asus and try to get a recent recovery password (I hate calling tech support when I am the tech support), google a bit deeper to see if someone cracked the algorithm to the recovery codes, or. Jumped onto google found the list and damn again! This list only goes until 2012. I just needed to google the list of recovery codes to remove the password. I had fixed a similar asus computer years ago that had a bios password. Damn this thing has a admin bios password.

But when he brought it over and turned it on, first thing to pop up was grey text box that said ENTER PASSWORD. I thought when he said he needed for me to remove the password he meant it had a password to get into windows. Laptop was dirty as hell and looks beat up but still turned on. So a buddy if mine brought me a laptop that he had found from cleaning out an abandon house.
