Removing OmniBook Passwords
Removing OmniBook Passwords
If you forget your password, Hewlett-Packard has a procedure to allow you to
remove it. There is a master password that will unlock each OmniBook. You must
call Technical Support and provide acceptable proof-of-ownership of your
OmniBook. The fact that the OmniBook is in the hands of an HP representative is
not evidence of ownership. In addition, HP will not remove a password from an
OmniBook for anyone other than the owner, even if the request involves law
enforcement agencies.
To remove the password
1. Send the following documentation by fax or mail
See the list farther below for password removal locations.
Acceptable proof-of-ownership (sales receipt, purchase order, etc.) with the
following information:
OmniBook's serial number.
Owner's name.
Where purchased.
Date of purchase.
A written password removal request should have the following information:
Date of request.
Requester's name, address, and telephone number.
From whom was the OmniBook acquired (company, store, gift, etc.).
The OmniBook model number (such as OmniBook 800CT, OmniBook
2000/5700CT).
The OmniBook's serial number.
