Hacked And Changed Password/bios
Locked for the last 4.6 years, it was hacked it/bios & changed the password.I've purchased a FLASH DRIVE & CD to bypass the password, used several different YouTube videos with no luck.Best Buy Geek Squad and Assurian Computer Techs could not figure out what to do. I truthfully need all my documents/25 years of pictures and videos that I stored on my laptop, I can't loss them. The hacker glotted about what they did, then started it working when they previously did something to lock the laptop up, and how they downloaded everything (including everything from my 4 cel phone) to their laptop/PS-4.
