Anyone help me to reset this unit to factory specs.... I have read most of the forums and see that some have reset buttons but this one does not. There is a watch battery but will this drain the unit if I take it out for a while....(as some other units suggest). I do not have the master installer password or 4 digit code. I have shorted laptop bios before with a paper clip ...when people have forgotten their boot up password.... Is it possible on this unit? anybody out there help? Appreciate it in advance.. Regards Bill

Hi, I did as you instructed and cannot get to factory settings. The only menu that comes up that I can get into is the Operators menu ...when I try and select anything it asks for password for Installer and that's as far as I get.... Regards Bill

Appreciate your quick response... I had tried that but can't get past the operator menu. The installer pw has been changed and I do not know it. That is why I was looking for a backdoor.... I am limited to operator menu only. Is that info stored on the hard drive or an eprom or bios chip? This picked up at an auction and no info came with it..... dont have a lot of money in it and probably can buy a new one for under 100.00 but hate to spend money when we do not have to. Regards Bill
