I recently picked up an old 286 workstation cheap but its locked out by a password. I can't find much information about it online so I was hoping one of you kind folk may be able to help me get the password cleared. Its an 8 character password and yes I've tried password and other 8 character words written on the machine itself but no luck.
The system is an HM Systems Minstrel Workstation. Its based around a chips and technology chipset and uses a harris 286 processor. The bios is by Quadtel.
There are various jumpers / pin heaters around the board and a dip switch near the bios chips (sort of) but I'm reluctant to go messing as I don't have a manual and don't want to fry anything. Surely there must be a way to remove the password...
