    Medion E2215T BIOS Password problem

    Hi guys
    i have a Medion E2215T - MD 60213 laptop. It was bought from someone who no longer lives here on Gran Canaria

    The hard drive is embedded on the PCB and it will not boot into an OS I just get the requester for a BIOS password which is unknown so I can't get into the BIOS and boot from USB either.

    I tried removing the battery and leaving it overnight but it made no difference

    Can I clear the password by removing he BIOS chip and reprogramming it with a new bin file using my Eprom programmer? If so does anyone have a suitable BIOS bin file? Assuming the password is held in the BIOS. It must be held somewhere

    Thanks guys

      Thanks. I'll get the chip unsoldered and read it.

        Damn - it's a 25Q64FW

        That's a 1.8V Eprom and my TL866CS doesn't do 1.8V

        Looks like I need another programmer

          You can buy cheap 1.8v adapters that should work with your programmer.

              I desoldered the BIOS chip and read the contents (before seeing the suggested password form SMDFlea)

              Seeing as I already removed it, here is the original file (attached)

              Does someone know how to clear the password and for that matter does someone know where I can learn to do that myself?
