New BIOS are horrible, no more easy backdoors, no more taking out the battery neither Password held inside seperate non-battery backed EEPROM memory located inside peripheral controller chip, that does not appear in the machine's normal address space I hear.

Can you piggyback some wires onto the controller chip and address the password memory directly if you want to clear a forgotten password?

Milk it out like milking a cow

Heard some newer BIOS are also locked against flashing to unsigned versions?
