On Page 256: How to Disable the Power-On Password: 1. Power-off the computer 2. Open the keyboard and remove the battery pack and the diskette drive. 3. For Models 355x, 360x, 755C, and 755Cs, remove the attachment holder. 4. Install a jumper on the power-on password connector at bottom left side of the system board. 5. Reinstall the diskette drive and the battery pack. 6. Power-on the computer and wait until the POST ends. 7. Verify that the password prompt does not appear. 8. After the service check is completed, remove the jumper. To reactivate the password, set the password again. There is additional information on how Supervisor and Hard Disk Passwords can not be overridden. Additional Notes: The attachment holder is a insulator cover on the left side of the computer. It appears to be under the diskette drive and is held in place by one 4 mm screw. Note: When reinstalling make sure both batteries are seated correctly. Check that the insulator cover is in the correct position by sliding it end to end. > The power on password connector is to the left of the two battery connectors on the underside of the system board. >73 Eric ecottrell@doble.com
