Try CMRR - Secure Erase (freeware):
http://cmrr.ucsd.edu/hughes/SecureErase.html
http://cmrr.ucsd.edu/people/Hughes/HDDEraseReadMe.txt

"L: Unlock a locked drive (if drive is locked)

This option automatically tries to unlock the drive with all known HDDErase
passwords. If this fails, the user is prompted for the correct user or master
password on the drive. HDDErase will try to unlock the drive with the given
password as both a user password and a master password."

knoxo........if you don't want to help yourself then you can pay somebody to do it for a small fee!

or

You can read the manual in English or Russian. Translate if you need to.
You can go to a cd forum and ask how to burn a boot cd.
You could search this forum and find information.

Then you could write a manual in Slovakian. :lol:

An alternative is to create a bootable USB stick and copy HDDErase.exe to its root directory.
