Toughbook Hacker v1

Hi

I have a Papanasonic cf-53 , i think its mk2  (model number CF-53JAWZYDE)
BIOS is locked and i think previous owners disabled the wifi switch in Bios (wifi card present+installed, tested working , not showing on device manager)
luckily i can fix boot issues using "easybcd" mounted on the DVD ROM , but i cant access Bios to enable the WIFI or do other things. 
I am using external usb dongle for wifi for now. also there is no bluetooth.
i used "Universal BIOS Backup ToolKit 2.0" to read bios dump .
files (tool+dump) are attached.

i hope you could help.

On modern motherboards, this method practically does not work, and the Universal BIOS Backup Toolkit program: merges the wrong size.
I checked it on my laptop, although it worked without problems on old boards.
So, the most reliable way is the programmer.

Thanks for the information.
Will attempt retrieve dump and then ask for further assistance.

Thank you

Hi

Can AFUWINGUI retrieve a  sufficient dump to remove password from CF-D1NW200TZ

Thank you

hi,
yes it will.

Hi
Used Afuwin64 v5, under setup tab and block options the NVRAM was grey scaled.
I hope this dump is sufficient to obtain the Bios password.

I have tried to flash the new file but I assume I am doing something wrong as I get the error, which can be seen in the pics.

Hi,
You need to tick the "do not check rom ID" when making dump and when re flashing dump.

Looking at your pictures it looks like a later version of afuwingui, I think it V3 I use.
