So I have a Laptop whose password I have forgotten.
It turns out though that his BIOS is password protected too so since I can't open the case and reset the BIOS jumpers. I will have to format it.
The problem is the Hard Drive is probably in the first order since I tried Cd/DvD and USB. So my "brilliant" idea was to remove the hard drive while the system boots and then after it boots from my DVD I put the hard drive back in.
While Googlein I pick the tern "HOT SWAPPABLE".....that brings me to the question here;
Is my internal Hard Drive hot swappable? And if not is there any other way to remove the password on my windows 7. Else if: Dont bother telling me to take it to a repair store
Additional Details One other question is there any standard password that BIOS-es use my laptop is Acer Aspire 5542-13xx. If you need further information I'll go open my laptop.......

Either way this question is off topic. You should carefully remember your passwords or take the laptop (with the receipt) to the shop you bought it from. – jippie – 2013-07-28T20:08:39.167
