I used the simple circuit to read the eeprom. Then used the ibmpass 2.1. I can see and understand the thinkpad information (i.e. serial number...) but I can not understand the password. I don't know if it is encrypted or not. But there are some special characters showing up. This is a Thinkpad T400. Can anyone provide some answers?

I have emailed the dump file. Also, somehow I was able to get into the bios in user mode. I can't change anything important though. But I can load an OS. I was able to load DOS from a floppy after getting out of the bios. I was thinking about installing a new OS to a new Hard Drive. Is there a way to reset the supervisor password from within windows Xp or Linux? Or is this even a good idea?

The email address is listed above and in R24RF08 anyway.

Ok, is TCPA locked, we provide the reset service and the writer is needed as well. To proceed, download and install W24RF08 from
www.allservice.ro/store/utils/

then see register.doc (also here)
