    I'm going to help a friend to make a new XP installation on his aspire 5050 but the BIOS setup is locked with password and it dosn't boot from cd.

    Does all aspires come with their BIOS locked or is it something the user setup?

    Thread closed. Do NOT bring up cracking BIOS passwords again.
