1386310 2014-10-14 22:25:00 The bios on my new setup is locked when It was given to me, even the person who gave it to me doesn't know what it was.

How do I unlock the bios, as I wish to turn off the "Intel Boot Agent" during start-up.

Is there some type of admin password I can type in or something?

I've tried that. No luck. There is a reset bios jumper, but as I don't have a manual, I don't know what the reset position is so I can place it there.

Was able to disable Intel Boot Agent and boot up times are much faster now! :)
