    Please refresh my memory!  
    
    Isn't BIOS data maintained by a small internal battery? 
    
    Would disconnection of the battery cause the BIOS to reset to it's 
    default state, and erase the password?
    
    Thanks;

    I'm working on a case and was given an IBM Thinkpad to review.  The owner
    has implemented a BIOS password.
    I removed the hard drive intending to mount it on our enCase system, but
    find that the Tinkpad Thin Drives have a thin connector as well.
    does anyone have either a method of cracking the Thinkpad BIOS password, or
    an adaptor recommendation to allow connection to the enCase system.
    
    Thanks
