hi
recently swapped one of these on gumtree and the bios is password protected

had a quick look on the net and tried a few programs to extract the password but none of them worked

its running windows 8 at the moment and it looks like whoever did the install have installed pro instead of home

the guy i got it off said a computer guy did it ages ago and he no longer has any contact info

so if i want to wipe and install a fresh windows looks like im stuffed

i tried to reflash the bios from acer site but password stayed on

any ideas?

ps the battery life on this thing is insane with the dock plugged in
