I just recived a IBM ThinkPad 755CD from the estate of a late relative. I was planning on using this machine to type papers in my bed and play Civ II and Colonozation, so it does have at least something to do with CIV. Anyway, when I started it up I find that the screen I get to is nothing more than a little icon that looks like a hard disk and another icon that looks like a lock with a little flashing curser next to it. I get three chances to type in the right password before the machine locks up and I have to restart it to try again.
Does anyone know of a way I can find out the password or bypass the password? Is it a BIOS password or one on the harddrive? I tried making it boot off of the floppy drive, but it doesn't even look at the floppy, just goes strait to this password thing.
Please help me out, I'd really like to have a computer of my own and stop using my roommates.
If you need any more information just post it and I'll try to answer.
