The Lenovo Thinkpad laptops have an Atmel chip to store the BIOS password so you cannot get around the password by pulling out the battery. You can, however, Google for a circuit to read the password but you will need some skills in working with circuit boards and soldering to get it right. I guess that is the difference between a business laptop and a consumer laptop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
