MASQUERAID,

So if I prove my ownership, Lenovo will provide me with the tools to reset the password?

No, usually they'll take it from you and return it reset. &nbsp;You won't get the tools just the reset. It's possible (and I am only guessing here) that they could do this remotely by calculating a hash key from your serial number and could give you that over the phone. &nbsp;Check with your local office.

Haven't done this with Lenovo for sometime but last with Sony was about 25% the cost of the laptop! &nbsp;You'll get a price.

Lenovo SL500 - reset/recover BIOS Supervisor Password

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.
