    Aspire 4738zg bios needed

    Good day, I need help in removing bios password from a bin file. Owner flashed bios with incorrect one, laptop wont display. Then I tried searching the net for a working one because he didn't make a backup from old bios.

    I found a supposedly working one but it has password in it and wont boot further although it now displays. Acer website does not help because it's an exe file and I have no knowledge how to extract it. I have attach bios found on the net, if maybe someone can check it out. Or if you guys have a working one it'll be much appreciated. Thanks

      Unfortunately there's no code. I was hoping for that too. I haven't found any schematic for this either, to see if I can short something to reset the bios.

                  Thats odd, I tried the password but still wont enter. I also saw that pass when I changed option to ascII (which I forgot to do earlier) . Serial number is 04003996925. Thanks.

                        Re: Aspire 4738zg bios needed

                        According to the part number its an intel machine https://villman.com/Product-Detail/A...38ZG-P622G50Mn
                        So, you`ve got a base cover thats maybe different,a different motherboard,or a bios chip thats the wrong size with the wrong bios. Are there any stickers under the memory ?

                          Both processor is AMD

                                Thank You very much SMDFlea for patiently helping me. I haven't tried the last bios you uploaded but I managed to enter Bios Setup by typing the first password you gave but accidentally forgot to include the letter Y.

                                I mistyped and spelled it as TANGINAMO and it went through, have no clue bout it. I have also attached an image of some details about the bios. Please check.

                                Again, Thanks very much SMD and to all you guys.


                                PS. the password is a Filipino word that has a bad meaning so dont bother typing or saying it.
