[ltp] bios access with boot password problem

[:phaidros]

hi,

I set a boot password in the bios and since I changed my hd (the
formerone went to nirvana) I cannot access my bios anymore.

"Authentication of system services failed. Press the Esc key to resume."

IBM says:
"The Predesktop Area in the hard drive is corrupted. To use the
Predesktop Area, restore it from a recovery CD."

but - erm, which CD they mean?

any help?


kind regards,
phaidros
