AMI BIOS password removal

by jean_gui . Updated 21 years, 10 months ago

Hi,

I have fond an old Pentium II close to a trash and I am trying to get it work again in order to install a small linux distribution with a apache server on it.

The problem is that it doesn’t boot on my floppy disk and when I want to change the bios setup to make it boot on the floppy, I cannot …!!
It is asking me for a password ?
I have checked onto the web, for getting a password but all the backdoor passwords does not work.
What can I do ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

ps : my motherboard is an American Magatrends (AMIBIOS 1996).

cheers
Jean-Guillaume LALANNE
