I have an ASUS laptop. The problem is that I've forgot my BIOS password.

I've clicked Win+R in order to get a date upon which a rescue password would be generated. The date is that of today 2014/10/05.

Does anyone know how to generate the master password of my transformer book?

    You would have to reset the CMOS. – Giacomo1968 Oct 05 '14 at 02:22
  • I can't access the CMOS battery in my laptop as this either would damage it or remove it from the warranty. There is already a second approach to recover things which is the Master Password generation which depends on today's date. – Omar Oct 05 '14 at 02:26

    Look at this thread. There are ways to reset the CMOS without being invasive on the hardware: http://www.overclock.net/t/146165/tip-on-cmos-reset-for-most-asus-boards – Giacomo1968 Oct 05 '14 at 02:28
  • It doesn't work unfortunately!! – Omar Oct 05 '14 at 02:45
  • Then contact the ASUS people concerning this issue. If it was easy to change and bypass the Master Password, it would not be a very good protection would it? – mdpc Oct 05 '14 at 05:22
  • I forgot to ask and verify, YOU DO OWN the laptop in question. If not, then I would refer this back to your company administrator. – mdpc Oct 05 '14 at 05:23

  • YES/NO I own it won't make sense! Because you don't have the right neither to Ask or Verify!!! @mdpc However, I've just contacted the ASUS support who are the only one who have this right!! – Omar Oct 05 '14 at 09:26

Change date as user to 2002/01/02 and use recovery password ALAA4ABA (all uppercase)
