    cf-30 mk3 i was having an issue and panasonic support told me to reset default bios settings. i did and it set a password on the bios, apparently its not supposed to do this. does anyone have any ideas on why this happened or how i go about getting the password (legally)?

    Contact Panasonic Support. We can't talk about it. Forum rules.

    Sorry about that and good luck.

    Your only other option is to call Heartland services. They do all Panasonic service work but it will not be cheap. Motherboard replacement.
    Sorry but thread closed..per rules.
