So i see a good deal on a R630xl on ebay and pull the trigger and It arrived yesterday and to my surprise the bios setup is password protected. I looked online and there are a couple of sets of jumpers for clearing password and nvram except this motherboard does not have those. There is a spot on the board where they would normally be except this board does not come with them installed.
A little more poking around online i find this is a custom ordered "locked" board ( I think). I do have access to the IDRAC 8 enterprise i just can't seem to override the passworded bios!This causes everything in setup including lifecycle to be grayed out. Is there a way around this ? can anyone point me in the right direction with instructions to override this ? Battery removal does not work Thanks
