I need help getting past the boot password set up in bios. I can not boot anything without. Suppose i would have to get a new CMOS battery, My housemate got pissed off at me and decided to change the password with out my consent. Is there any way i can reset the boot on password. I have alot of written works on my HDD. My system is A12 quad Lenovo Ideapad 350, dual bootable to ubuntu and win10. With i believe i might have forgot but has a Pheonix Frimware.
 
Nope, not going to get any help here with this. No way to prove your story or ownership. Contact Lenovo, prove ownership and they can help you.
 
We can't help you get through the password, sorry.

I would squeeze it out of your roommate, threaten legal action if you need to.
