I have a Dell Inspiron 600m and whenever I boot it up, I get the white error screen telling me I have a locked hard-drive password. I never set up a password though, does anybody know what password I could use to unlock the hard-drive? The error message says "hard-disk #***********-595B is protected by a password authentication system." I saw on here that someone else had the same problem and someone was able to give him the password he needed. My service tag is
FPL8N61 if that helps!

How To Erase Dell Inspiron Hard-drive Password

Replying to Emusic.SR.MN

I have the very same problem, I noticed it today, and my warranty is expired with dell so I can't even ask them to help. I thought perhaps the hard drive became a tad bit disconnected, and the white screen was something that only the people assembling and inserting the hard drive at the factory could take care of. I cannot see any passwords on the computer at all, not even around the hard drive. Grr.
