Samsung GT7000 - Many Problems!

Archived from groups: comp.sys.laptops (More info?)

Hi guys,

My boss's old computer hasn't worked for a while. I've now decided to take
it back home and to have a look at it, to see if I can fix it.

His computer's a Samsung GT7000 - and I can't seem to find any help anywhere
on the Internet - I know you guys can do something!

When I took it home, I plugged it in and found two problems. First, the
display doesn't work. At all. Kaput.

Secondly, it's asking for a password. My boss left the company over a year
ago now and all his numbers have changed so I have no way of contacting him
to ask what his password is.

So, I need to open the laptop, to A) Reset the password and B) to check if
there's any loose connections between the computer and the display.

The problem is - I can't seem to open it. I've opened many computers before,
but this is the first laptop I've tried it on. And I don't want to damage it
at all.

So basically, how do I open the laptop (I seem to have unscrewed all screws
but it still seems to be stuck on something) how can I reset the BIOS
password and is there a way of fixing my display problem?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Paul
