i've somehow managed to lock my thinkpad using the fingerprint software within windows.
i've read a lot of posts on the web and on here, and if i purchase the PC8394T programming tools will this be all i need to unlock it, or will i need any additional software/hardware??

many thanks

PC8394 tools are only the method and software.
You got to build a hardware device to read the TPM chip, because this is not included in the kit. But this is not too hard, anyway we have these interfaces for sale if need it.

thanks for the reply.

how much does the hardware cost and will i need to do any soldering as it's something i'm not confident in doing??

The interface is $55 (not including the delivery fee). T60 can be unlocked without soldering, by just touching the security chips pins using probes.

Yes, you'll have them all.

Soldering or not soldering is a problem of experience or comodity. Whatever, the interface could be attached to the chip either by soldering or using small probes.
T60 is a model that will allow you to use probes without any problem.

To start the order process, just download the form:
www.allservice.ro/forum/dl/order2.rtf

The rest is quite easy to follow, just include at the end of the form that you made the payment for the hardware too.

hi I also have a T60 and I that is locked as soon as you boot it up you see a nice logo and then password promt.

I would also like to buy everything thats neccesary to do the job without soldering. Is that a service that you can provide?

Well,

You need the same software package: PC8394 tools.

Terrafox · Nou Venit Joined: 06 Feb 2007 Posts: 2

Okay what about Hardware? All I have is the T60 itself and of course my normal home pc, Other then that I wish to buy everything neccesary for unlocking it again.

also the probes you are speaking of, are they easy to accuire in for example an electronics shop? Perhaps you could make a complete package for me? What is the shipment cost & estimated amount of days it takes for it to arrive in Denmark?

Regards R.

Hi Victor ,

I am in the same scenario,

Got a T60 type 2007, I tried to load a different version of Windows on a new tp/ from a friend,” don’t ask it was stupid. Now the standard HDD password window shoes up first witch I have following is the POP or SVP that I do not have. Reading your previous members can I assume that 165$ US includes all I need from software and circuit board needed to capture the info of the EPROM chip?

Am I missing anything / do you sell lost of kits to Canadians??

I cant seem to find any Canadian site that provide your “expertise” or love to help others. Other thank sending my laptop to an eBay guy that sells his services if you send your TP? Not sure I can trust an online personality, maybe I am wrong.

Again thanks, I will register ASAP.

F….. Canada.

I think I know the guy you're talking about, he bought the software from us. Anyway, our intention is to offer a service directly to the cutomers not through some ebay super heroes.
The whole operation is easy to follow and can be done by anybody, no need to be super-skilled.

Now, please email us directly with details. For example, I didn't understand exaclty, if you need the SVP or HD password, etc. We need to know the details to be able to make a full evaluation and offer you a solution

Thanks
