Recently, I would like to reformat my lap top (Acer 3210 series) and would like to boot from
drive (where I could use my system and recovery disk)
But, I could not get into BIOS (after pressing F2) to change the booting sequence because it requested for password which I did not set up. Tried all the password possibilities but it still didn't work.
Apparently my BIOS is by Insyde SCU.
Anybody knows how I could bypass this or hack this? Or anyone has similiar problems? Tried contacting Acer but still no reply.
