there are few companies where they can unlock it for you online but you have to pay few $$ for that
download the software/install and connect your drive and buy credit and go on

:shock:

Here people are giving answers without first asking the right questions!!!

For example......

1) What is the drive model?

2) Was the drive locked in a laptop using the bios security system as in a Dell? And do you still have the same laptop?

3) Or is the drive an external model?

4) If data is not important you could try this: http://cmrr.ucsd.edu/people/Hughes/SecureErase.shtml

Different scenarios might have less complicated methods to unlock, especially for an end user.

Just as a thought........

If you know the password you would not need MHDD script. If it is YOUR drive you should not be asking HOW to unlock it.

So I think.... Most people who ask are not the original owners of the locked laptop drive..............

Lets add

1: "How to pick locks"
2: Starters guide to stealing wallets
3: "How I made it BIG doing bank jobs"
