Someone walk into my office and stole my lappy
Acer Aspire 5310
How can i render it useless.
I will appreciate your prompt response.

sorry for the loss.
I'm afraid nothing can be done remotely.

Thankx 4 yr concern.
Really?
That is Ok
May God see us through

what u can do with your future laptop is create a bios power up password. you can also create a bios admin password and tweak some settings in the bios.

bios passwords on laptops are notoriously difficult to break, so anyyone getting hold of a laptop with a bios powerup password is prolly getting how do they say - a brick, or a nice paperweight. if u forget the password u are fked - just keep that in mind. . .

Thanks
But how do i do that?
I will appreciate.

Nice Weekend

there's anti-theft software for computers. . . can exactly say what it does though, i know i saw among the options when i was customizing my computer on HP website its called LOJACK or somefink of that sort

thanks
I will check that out

v

when booting press f2 or f12 or f6- it varies btw manufacturers- to get into the bios

@poster; sorry about the loss.But nothing can be done.Hope you had backups shaaa.

sorry bro, i feel ur pain. but sincerely there is nothing you can do , its gone. putting a bios password will not help either as it can be removed with 5k @ computer village. just pray d person is stupid enough to leave ur old datas especially pics there

Nawao
so they even remove bios passwords?
OK
God Dey

the last time i checked, the only way to remove a bios password is to take a laptop apart to get to the eeprom chip, and flash it

most of the 'computer engineer's in computer village will try the old trick - removing the cmos battery for five minutes. this does not work with modern laptops.

if you take a laptop to pc village to get the bios password renmoved, you are more likely to get your system bricked than anything else
