Long story short, bought a used laptop and upon instructions of the seller I drained the battery and charged it, after letting it charge for like an hour I had some work to do, now whenever I boot it the laptop asks me for a password. I know that when I got the laptop I removed any type of password from the bios by simply doing [ENTER] over and over on empty fields in the BIOS but no matter what I type it was always says "System Disabled" after 3 attempts.
The problem is I have a presentation on this for my university and it's graded. I made a stupid mistake of not backing it to my cloud and I can't even disassemble this thing. If someone can help me in Lahore or tell me a good store that won't take 500rs for taking out the CMOS battery and fixing it in Hafeez Center I would be ETERNALLY grateful! I am the only one in my group with the laptop and I am going to be in huge crap if I show up empty handed on Thursday.
So if anyone can help me that'd be awesome. I can go to HC at anytime but I want a good place to go to where the guy won't charge me a ludicrous amount for taking out the CMOS battery and replacing it which is the only way to undo this, I tried opening the keyboard myself to no avail.
The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite A135-S2246 if that helps (the models on google are outdated, this has a 1.8Ghz C2D, 2GB DDR2 667 and an 80GB HDD) if someone can PLEASE help me out I will truly appreciate it =).
and let me clear some stuff up
1.I can't access the BIOS / boot menu in anyway, as soon as I boot the laptop it asks me for the password. No BIOS / Bootmanager or Windows.
2. I didn't upgrade the damn BIOS, the system was running like shit as it was and I didn't wanna take a gamble by installing a new BIOS (in all my years of gaming I have never upgraded the BIOS of any item I own, you can ask this from any hardware guy who knows me) and the guy is now saying I upgraded the BIOS when people on the internet are complaining about this issue everywhere on the internet.
3. I tried my hardest to unscrew the back / open the keyboard but unfortunately I don't have the right equipment to do either. I tried all sorts of objects on the keyboard but it just refuses to come off and I wasn't too hard nor too soft in order to avoid damaging the keyboard.
Once again if someone can help tell me a good store name / reference that would be absolutely awesome. I need access to this thing immediately.
