What did you do the NB to cause it to prompt for date and time? What was it that happened prior to this? That would be nice to know. Did you do something to the BIOS? Change the BIOS Battery?
I think if you don't have the BIOS Password you'll need to go straight to IBM (Levano), they're the only ones who Can / Will unlock one of their NB's.
With out more info there's not much that can said. -d

somebody tried to crack into the NB. Sometimes though a mainboard going bad could trigger this. But I think your correct the BIOS battery is gone, or had just been changed. Maybe it it sat idle (as in not used at all) too long. -d
