I have an old Windows 7 Toshiba Tecra A9 with a locked BIOS which won't let me boot off anything but the internal hard drive. I sadly lost the BIOS password a long time ago. I am however administrator on this machine. Is it possible somehow to replace windows by linux in such a situation?
Answer
You can use wubi https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide or you can try to remove the password by using http://thegeekdaily.com/easily-reset-bios-password-with-pc-cmos-cleaner/ or by taking apart the laptop and removing for a few seconds the cmos battery.
