DX79TO Chassis Intrusion and Password Reset

$

0

Hello there,

 

i've got a problem with my DX79TO.

It looks like the same problem as described here:

Cannot clear DX79SI password

 

An angry roommate i kicked out has set a password to my BIOS and wiped my HDDs.

Well the HDDs are recovered but i can't reset the password.

The only things it does is complaining over Chassis Intrusion and asking for a password to unlock the system.

I've tried to pull the battery, i tried the recovery menu via jumper on pin 2+3 and i even flashed older and newer BIOS revision through the recovery.

Nothing worked. Is there anything i can do to remove the password?

 

Btw. i already desoldered and dumped the Winbond 25Q64CVSIG and disassembled the dump with IDA Pro, but i cant find the exact location for the Password in the VSS Region.

But I'm still trying to reverse engineer that whole thing.

 

Greetings from Germany
