    To remove password you'll probably need to solder a special loopback for parallel port (pretty simple) ... not sure about your model, though - some of newer models uses USB loopback instead of parallel... Friend of mine recently did it for Toshiba laptop... I can ask him for the link to the site, if nothing else will help you...

    I just found another link:

    Thanks Ruslan. Would you know if i would be able to use the loopback plug fromthe link below?
    Also, is there a link that directs you on how to make one from scratch. Thanks again.
