I think the point I.m trying to make is that the BIOS chip is not involved in this issue of a passworded laptop.
The security chip is the one that holds the password info. This chip is referred to as a TPM(Trusted Platform Module)chip.

I think my last comment says it all, especially with the authors added comment"May be somebady has masterpwd generator program. Thanks."
The BIOS chip doesn't hold the password info, the security chip does.

That's a great link nobus , but for the Inspiron it reiterates what I posted in my first post. It says to call dell and give proof of ownership, and that you may have to transfer ownership.
