With IBM's it's a different story to other makes of NB's.

Effectively you can not remove a BIOS Password unless you already know what it is quite a lot of disgruntled workers do this as they are leaving a company to prevent anyone useing using that piece of hardware.

With the rest you need to remove the Mains Adaptor the Battery and then sometimes there is a Lithium Battery on the inside of the unit that needs to be disconnected depends on the maker and that will effectively wipe any settings in the BIOS Chip.

IBM is capable of removing-any set passwords but it's not cheap and sometimes is comparable to buying a new M'Board for that model Think Pad.
