Yeah, if there'a a BIOS password locking you out of making further changes, and you don't already know that password, it's going to be super hard to do anything.

In most cases, you'd open the computer and pull the CMOS battery to reset the BIOS, but I have no clue how to do that on a Thinkpad.

Good news, it's been a few hours and I made it through all that and the password was no problem, I just had to establish a password cuz apparently there wasn't a password before, not sure why they were asking for that, maybe they weren't even asking for that, I just went through a few settings and then found my way back to the boot screen and finally got in and

DID MY TAXES!

Hooray. I won't have to use a library computer, my laptop works again. For now.

Yeah the only reason I needed my laptop was to do my taxes because some things, like taxes, can't be done on smartphones.

Yeah, you don't HAVE to set a BIOS password, but it helps keep people from fiddling around where they shouldn't be!

Congrats on getting it going!
