List Of Working AMI & AWARD BIOS Backdoor Passwords For Laptops

Published by: Alex George on June 07, 2023

It is not uncommon that you may forget the BIOS password of your laptop and PC.

It does not matter if you do not want to change any settings from the Basic Input/Output System on your computer.

However, you must log in to BIOS for tasks like changing the boot priority order.

Then, the BIOS (or CMOS) will ask you for the security password.

Now you have two choices.

  1. Reset the BIOS password with a Jumper.
  2. Bypass the BIOS Password With a Generic BIOS password.

The first method is time-consuming.

The easiest way is to use the backdoor information set by the Basic Input/Output System manufacturers.

Here is a list of working BIOS backdoor passwords that will help you to access locked CMOS (BIOS).

Let us check the most working CMOS backdoor passwords for major laptop brands.

You must understand that a laptop brand does not use a single CMOS (BIOS) manufacturer for all models.
