    It doesn't do it all the time. It only happens after the computer has been shut off for some time. If I power it off and turn it back on sometimes it will work and sometimes freezes at password again. No problem if I go into BIOS to disable BIOS password. Other than that BIOS works fine.

    Anyone else have this issue?

    Purchased this July 2011 and had issue with every BIOS version in the last year.
