K7VMM Bios Password flaw
I was recently fiddling around with my bios and I put the boot password on to prevent siblings from screwing my computer up. Few days later, I turned my pc on put the password in and realized that the 9 character password I put in was wrong. The last character was incorrect BUT it let me boot my pc up. Thinking it was just a fluke, I tried it again with several different characters than the correct one, and sure enough, there exists a "flaw" in coding I assume, so that no matter what the last character is it will always let it go through. ECS makes the motherboard for those that want to know. I also thought that maybe AMI (bios) needed to be updated, so I did that too and it still did not fix it.
(If this is in the wrong catagory, please move it, thanks)
