Hello , I have a Dell Inspiron 530 running Windows Vista Home. I am trying to access the system BIOS and it has a red password log in screen. I tried to guess and enter several log in passwords including the word DELL and none of them worked. I didn't want to enter too many wrong passwords because I didn't know if the system would lock me out. Can anyone help me by pass the BIOS log in password or some how disable it ? Thank You in advance.
Hi WILSPEAK,
Thank you for writing to Dell Community Forum.
Request you to contact Dell team for the BIOS password either via DellTechCenter in Facebook or @DellCaresPRO on Twitter and they will be able to provide you a BIOS password once the ownership of the system is confirmed.
Do reach back for any query.

I have a Precision M4400 and somehow the BIOS admin password is locked and I cannot access the BIOS settings anymore.I called Dell Support twice, spent a lot a time waiting on the phone, also waited weeks for a resolution to my request, and finally they won't provide a password even if I am willing to pay the fee for that.
Does anyone know an alternative solution?
If you can't verify your ownership of the machine, they won't unlock it -- if that's the case, you have just one option: replace the mainboard. If you do that, be ABSOLUTELY sure the seller guarantees there's no password on the replacement you buy.2 more replies
i recently bought a dell inspiron 15 7357 used from a pawnshop and it had a bios password that they stated they did not have the bios password to ..i contacted dell and went through the process of transferring the ownership that went great called about the problem and was given a code from a tech that didnt work and she stated she never heard of the problem really ..and went straight to you need to replace the motherboard for 300 dollars ..so im asking for help because it has to be another way to get to find the password please help thank you
There is no other way. Your best bet is to return the system to the shop for a refund.1 more replies

Dell Inspiron 8100 BIOS password
Contact Dell?
Hey guys!. as topic says.
My son put a BIOS password and he forgot the very same day, i've had this laptop for a long time, and i doubt i still have my warranty
is there anyone who could please help me via a PM with service tag?
thank you in advanced!!
my computer was running fine and normal, until two days ago.
i rebooted, and left my ipod plugged in. normally in this scenario, the computer will boot to the dell loading screen as it always does, and the progress bar will stick at about 95 percent. so i press power, unplug the ipod, and restart normally. this time, however, on reboot i came up with a "Hard disk #***********-A95B, the primary system HDD, is protected by a password authentication system" message...a *similar* message has been discussed at length on these boards. it seems that very few people have the exact same message...there are more starting with "This computer, #blahblahblah"...
and from what i've heard, HDD passwords are close to impossible to break. if anyone can help me out, i would like to know how this could have happened, and what i can do to [at the very least] preserve the data on the disk or remove the password.
the curious thing is that after reading the forum, i came under knowledge that a password can be generated using information from my computer...which was unsuccessful over the phone with dell. they provided me a password which they had "generated," and it did not work. however, the tech support woman was almost arguing with me that the HDD password was the same as the bios/system password. i have seen other peoples' messages, and they are seemingly different (system/computer password as opposed to hard disk). am i wrong to think ...

...which brings me to the fact that i'm getting eleven asterisks instead of a code, followed by the "bios standard" a95b (which is why they insist that it's a bios password). does this mean that (potentially) my hd is not actually the problem, but there is a motherboard short causing it to not be recognized properly?
help is desparately appreciated. thanks :]Click to expand...
According to my big book of HD issues, the asterisks mean that the IDE section of the drive is flumped, or your IDE on the mobo is, one of the two.
It should so a series of letters and numbers, if so then it can be unlocked by dell assuming you can prove ownership.
Yes the HD and the BIOS Password are different, actually there are 4, admin, config,setup and the HD.
The easiest way to find out is to hook the HD to a an IDE on a desktop PC and see if it can be seen, if its Locked (ie passworded) it will show as a zero sized drive, if however its flumped,chances are the BIOS wont detect it full stop.
If it is unlocked and accessible copy of the data and scrap the drive and get a new one, now would be a good time to get a decent brand and maybe a size increase.
If it's flumped or locked and dell wont help then they make great paperweights.
Any other questions give us a shout....
This thing has a password to enter the BIOS setup program.
I've taken the thing apart mostly, can't find anything.
How do you reset the password on this thing?

Hello all & RUSTAM,
My name is Jordan, an Account Manager in Toronto.
A year ago I set a password on my Inspiron 2200 and forgot it. Judging by the forums, you might get these requests frequently so I'm sorry if I'm just another person asking for help.
My SERVICE TAG is 7YGPW81-595B, I was wondering you would be able to email me my code or old pass. What bugs me is that I remember setting it to something simple like 1234 or 12345 or asdf. You might see that if its in the service tag. I tried for hours already.
My email is [email protected], or I'll be happy to give you my phone number via email.
Anyways, IF YOU ARE EVER IN TORONTO, I would like to buy you a drink or show you the town. Let me know. I hope you get this soon!

Welcome to Techspot
I need N5010 bios administrator password. I don't speak English. :-(
If your trying to change a bios setting or Reformat any of the newer Dell Laptop's you may run into this issue! There is an Administrator password you will be prompted for. I believe this is created at the factory and unplugging the bios battery no longer does the trick! I tried many different passwords combos and found that:
<dell> all lowercase and minus the brackets works for a few of the newer Dell Laptops
Good Luck,
That makes no sense at all. If it were true then Dell would have to provide the password as part of the information it provides to customers when they buy the laptop. Anything else would subject them to being sued.1 more replies

Hi all,
My little brother has gave that Dell inspiron n4110 BIOS a password and now he has forgot it. I know I can remove that password by opening the laptop but I don't want to open it. I can access to the OS which is Windows 7 and also can reinstall OSs by pressing F12 key, but when I want to go into the BIOS setup (which I should press the F2 key for that) that password is required. I've heard there are some codes removing that but I'm not sure is it real or not.
Any solution for that laptop?
Dell have recently added additional security to some of their laptop range - if you have somehow triggered this security you will have to contact Dell, and supply them with full details of the laptop, including serial and reference and full proof of purchase - they can then remove the password free of charge9 more replies

Hello everyone,
First, i posted here because i´m not sure if the http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic79263.html thread is being read any longer..if i did wrong i apologize for it, i won´t do this again. I´m just a little desperate with this problem...
Ok, my problem. My aunt bought me a dell inspiron 8000 for my birthday; she doesn´t know anything about computers but she's a great lady, i really apreciate this gift. She gave it to me and as i powered it on i saw the bios password screen. I started reading across this site about this password thing and decided to try that shorting method. I located the chip labeled 24WC02J on the board and proceeded to short 3rd and 6th pins...nothing...when i short and power on laptop goes off right after powering on. If i do the shorting pin by pin on 3rd and 6th using the paragon shorter with the 3rd pin it powers on but still that pass screen...with the 6th pin it goes off just after powering on. Maybe there´s some trick on the 6th leg....as far as i know 6th is the clock pin for the chip and 3rd is the A2 pin ( i guess is an input)... So i guess the shorting method won´t work for me...
I visited IdidMyC600 and the paragon site and also read the descriptive pdf at this sites...also took a look at the pictures and stuff at this sites....but i guess this thing wont work with the shorting methods...

I have the Dell Inspiron 518 desktop with 64 bit Vista, and attempted to update the BIOS to version 1.0.7 last evening. I closed all open programs, disabled anti-virus, and ran the BIOS update as administrator. The update began and asked if I would like to update from version 1.0.5 to 1.0.7, and I clicked on the update button. The BIOS flash began by deleting the previous BIOS and then attempted to install the new 1.0.7 BIOS but produced an error message similar to "error writing BIOS to block," an the only option was to cancel the update. I knew I did not have any BIOS installed at that point, but my computer was still operating so I made an additional attempt to re-download the 1.0.7 BIOS and re-install it. No good, it would not even run now. There was no turning back and no way to reinstall either the previous BIOS or the new one. Eventually I tried to restart the computer, and it would not start.
Dell is sending a tech next week to replace the motherboard on this otherwise great computer that is only about two months old.
DO NOT upgrade the BIOS on a Inspiron 518 with 64 Bit Vista to version 1.0.7. The upgrade does not work and will kill your motherboard.
No it happened to me too. Dell is replacing the motherboard under warranty but I was told somewhat firmly not to update the BIOS unless advised by a technican. In my defense the BIOS update was listed as "recommended" under the download section for this unit on the Dell support website.
I would recommend to avoid two phone calls (over 40 minutes each) to tech support and several days waiting for a new motherboard, not to update the BIOS at this time.
Thankfully it is being covered under warranty.

Hi so my friend had gotten this laptop a couple of years ago. They used it a few times and then kinda of forgot about it. Anyways they had to in a boot password on it, and of course they've forgot what it is.
I've already contacted Dell support chat, however the 'supposed' passwords they gave me didn't work. The reason I say supposed passwords is because if you do a google search for bios password generator it will come up with a page that gives both of these passwords, plus others that won't work, for the service tag.
I've tried to then reset the password by removing the CMOS battery, but after waiting a few hours and replacing the battery the bios still remembers it's password setting.
I've also looked on the board to see if there a pwd jumper, however for the area I can see I don't see any jumpers.
Does anyone here have any suggestions? Or is this laptop pretty much dead now?
Full model is Inspiron M531R-5535

You might try reading the documentation by the manufacturer of said system. Some BIOS passwords can be overcome...some cannot. Either the user manual or the repair manual for the system in question...would probably cover that information.
I have a Gateway G6-400c celeron.
There is a password set, so that when you first turn on your computer the first thing it does is ask you for a password before it even goes through the boot up, and I of course do not remember the password. I have had this computer sitting in storage for several years and I forgot I even set a password.
Is there a way around this password? so I can access the computer?
I can not access the BIOS to reset the boot order or do anything at all for that matter.
Hi bpsman,
There must be a jumper to remove from the motherboard. You will have to retrieve the motherboard map to know what jumper may be removed and replugged (it will delete the password).

It is very stupid situation now. If your notebook is ?locked? by BIOS password you have big problem now and nobody here can help you. BIOS password must be removed by authorized service provider.
BIOS password is very important security feature so any problem with locked machine must be handled by ASP. There are several different methods for BIOS password removal and it has nothing to do with BIOS backup or some kind of new BIOS installation.
Hi all,
I have a Laptop model HP2432ca which has locked me out completely from accessing its BIOS settings and the Windows Logon screen. Forgotten password case.
Bios is Phoenix. on booting computer, it immediately asks for this password. What can I do here?
All ideas highly appreciated!
Plase do not start multiple threads for the same issue.
In any event, as explained in other threads, we cannot assist as per the rules so I'm closing this thread as well.
I have a friends pc and their child has put in a bios password and doesn't remember it. I purchased software but can't boot to it on external cd/dvd because I don't have the password (F9). Removing cmos battery doesn't work no halt or stop code. The family doesn't have $299.99 to spend. any ideas. Does the Motherboard have a cmos battery jumper?
Hi, For an AIO, the password is often a hash of the serial number - enter the serial number on the site below and try the resultant code generated. https://bios-pw.org/ Regard, DP-K1 more replies

I have a customer's Lenovo Desktop that has a corrupted Microsoft Account Password, thus preventing access to the PC. Changing the password does not work as it appears this must be done on the affected pc. Also, Lenovo has an Administrative Lock on the BIOS Password. Resetting CMOS did not work (took out CMOS battery for 30 minutes, changed Cmos reset jumpers with power completely turned off - neither worked). Thus cannot change from secure boot to Legacy Boot. When customer comes back from vacation we will go to store where he purchased the PC and hopefully in conjunction with Lenovo obtain the password. Also, made a mistake and re-initialized the HHD as GPT. I think the HHD is GPT and not MBR, but the re-initialization now prevents the computer from booting at all.
Trying to get Administrative Bios password from manufacture so can change to Legacy Boot so can boot in Hiren's so I can use MiniTool Partition Wizzard to hopefully recover the HHD Partition so I will be able to boot normally, and also with Net User command in Command Prompt create an Administrative ID which will enable me to completely get into the computer.
MY QUESTION IS: If, for some reason Lenovo does not relinquish the administrative password, how can I either rebuild or reinstall the Windows 8.1 operating system? What would the actual procudures be? I have a test machine, HP Pavilion Notebook that is also 64 bit and Windows 8.1.... Read more

I have a Dell Precision M4300, and the HD started giving me issues, so I decided the replace the ATA HDD with a spare SSD I had lying around. When I went into the BIOS to change it from IDE to ACHI, (tried to boot with it, but SSD not seen), I found that all the darn settings were locked with security password. I have no idea if it?s using default Dell passwords or the previous owner set it, BTW, no chance of contacting previous owner. I tried both Password and Admin and neither of them worked, I know those are couple pwd?s Dell uses.
I thought I could treat it like desktop PC, so I removed the laptops battery and disconnected the CMOS battery. Came back over an hour later, and the darn BIOS is still totally locked down.
I even flashed the BIOS and updated it hoping this would give me fresh BIOS that wasn?t locked down, but it?s still locked. Not sure what?s going on, but I'm not used to BIOS saving its settings after all battery power has been removed, or the BIOS has been updated.
Any way of unlocking the BIOS settings?
Laptops are not like a desktop were you can revert all BIOS settings including the passwords but pulling the CMOS battery. Laptops store the passwords and such in non-volatile memory which will survive without power. As for reseting the BIOS password, I believe Dell has some backdoor system. But I don't really know.2 more replies

Greetings! I have a Dell D830 laptop that a friend of mine gave me last week. He bought it new and has never had an issue with it. He took out the HDD and gave me a blank one to use in it's stead. Problem: doesn't matter if I try to F2 into setup or F12 to change boot, I get a window that asks me for an administrator password. I've spoken with Dell to get this lock removed but they told me that the laptop is no longer supported by Dell and that I'd have to have someone else reset the password for me. There is no hardware reset option as the laptop was produced after 2004, and I have looked into a software option but this BIOS isn't supported. At this point I have no idea what to do because the laptop would work just fine if this password didn't exist. BIOS version A17. Please help.

So i was browsing for 7 days, i'm currently using my home made computer due to the problem with my Dell.
well at first everything was working like a charm, i installed the DVD-Writer and put it in Slave mode.
that day, when i wanted to install Vista on it, i tried to make the DVD-Writer as a primary drive, when i entered the BIOS, everything was alright but when i tried to change anything it tell me that the SETUP is locked, there is no password at all, its just this Factory password, so i tried to remove the Battery like has been suggested everywhere, but unfortunately XP isn't working at all, neither from the safe mode, all i get is that windows cannot start probably. tried to enter the BIOS, the date is back to 2005, and the factory password was still on, and the setup is locked.
now, i think my problem is in the BIOS, i need to put my dvd-writer as primary, but i need the Master Password.
I tried to contact Dell but they needed some details that i don't have, its just they are asking too much and i just have few info. and above all, i don't have a fax machine.
so any help would be appreciated.
What happens when you change the jumpers on the drives from cable select to jumper them as master and slaves?
These are normal settings for networked machines and servers. Who setup your system?
So after installing Windows 10 I decided to update my drivers and one of them was the "BIOS Update" after a while the update stopped at "sending the update image to FW for verification" and it's stuck on 3%. I'm not a computer wizard so your help is appreciated. Also if you're wondering , I'm using the Dell Inspiron 3847.
Bios updates require special installation and must be done alone. It cannot be done with other drivers. Bios updates should be done before updating to win 10 not after. Use caution updating bios since it can brick your computer.
You should not be updating the drivers yourself. Go to Dell Drivers and downloads and let the scanner tell you what windows 10 drivers you need--
Completely Shutdown the computer to get out of the hangup. Wait a minute and then turn it back on.
Hello everyone. I have DELL INSPIRON N5010. I was using windows 7 home basic 32 bit os. I wanted to change it to windows 7 ultimate. So I have inserted windows 7 Installation disk into CD drive. Then I went to through the installation and I chose the Custom as the installation type.When the partition page appeared, I have formatted all the disks including C which contains windows files. Then I got 298 GB unallocated space. Then I split them in to 4 partitions. Then I have selected one partition to install the windows. Then installation started .
Copying windows files succeeded.
Expanding Windows files(0%) is still be like that for 20 minutes. Then I got the error message like,
windows cannot install required files. error code 0x80070017
And I thought it would be the installation disk problem. But it works fine in other systems.
I tried several disks. No use. Also I got another problem.
when system boots I tried to enter into BIOS using F2 and F12 which was mentioned in screen. But it did not enter into the BIOS, Instead it goes to the installation.
I do not know what to do. Help me to get rid of this.
Thanks in advance.
I would suggest using a different DVD drive, or maybe copying the installation files to a USB stick (4gb or bigger) and performing a USB install.
The error 0x80070017 translates to "CRC Error" which means that the files that are being copied from the disk are not making it to the hard drive with the same structure, meaning that the "original" files on the disk are being modified/changed/corrupted while being copied to the "destination" location on your hard drive during the install.
This usually means either a bad DVD, or a read error on the DVD drive.
The easiest thing is to make a USB drive to install Window s7 (and it's WAY faster than DVD too!)
I hope this helps.
Hello, just purchased a dell inspiron 660, it's great, and it boots up really fast, it's got an i5! I love it! Only problem is there are no bios options showing on startup. (Just the dell logo, and a rotating wheel, then it goes straight to the login screen)
I tap f2, and f12, but nothing happens, it just continues on to the login screen.
Maybe it's not a major problem but I always like to see if there are options I can change in the bios.
Perhaps your method is incorrect.
Restart your computer.
At the first text on the screen or when the Dell logo appears, tap F2 until the message Entering Setup appears.

im posting this on behalf of a mate.
His dell laptop wont get past the bios screen, it loads halfway through the dell bios logo and its frozen.
im pretty sure its a hardware problem but how am i supposed to know whats wrong?
The hard drive indicator light also cuts off but it cant be the hardrive can it? surely it would be able to get past bios screen.
Some time ago, my Dell Inspiron 6000 developed a fault in that, whilst in Windows, the laptop would freeze up completely and required a hard shutdown. I diagnosed the problem to a fault with the onboard Broadcom RJ45 network interface card; I disabled the onboard NIC in the BIOS and all was well.
I recently needed to check a router LAN cable in a remote area, so used my laptop. My intention was to enable the NIC, check the cable and then disable the NIC again. Unfortunately, having saved the information to enable the onboard NIC in the BIOS and rebooted, the laptop will now not POST and I cannot access the BIOS to disable the NIC. The laptop begins the normal start sequence, but then hangs before the POST would start.
I know that if only I could disable the onboard NIC in the BIOS, all would be returned to normal. If anybody could help with information regarding accessing the BIOS in this situation, I'd be very grateful. I've even been to the extreme of dis-assembling the laptop and removing the rear RJ45 port from the motherboard in case it was a hardware problem - but I'm afraid that didn't work.
Thanks in advance,
Next stop, if you're that way inclined and if it is possible on that laptop, remove the network chip.

I reset the battery. And also try the bios jumper (if I done it correctly).

Could it be the video card is done.
Trying to fix my friend computer which he got for free. Computer a little damage. Hard Drive Broke, DVD Drive also but everything else looks ok.
I got a external hard drive hook up to it and a bootable flash drive.
Open the case and disconnect everything from the main board. Remove all add-in cards and disconnect keyboard and mouse. Leave only the power supply and monitor connected. If the screen still does not light up, take the power supply to a local shop and have them test it. If the power supply is good, you have narrowed the problem to main board, memory and processor. If you have more than one memory stick, try them one at a time.
Let us know your result.

/forcebios is the key command in DOS! If you have been struggling to restore your BIOS to an earlier version you will immediately realize how important this little command is.
You will need to use it after the .exe, after the c: prompt in DOS to revert to an older BIOS. It will look something like this when you enter it (the 530_1016.exe is the name of the 1.0.16 BIOS I found through Google):
And this allows you to return to the older BIOS after you have created a Boot USB, placed the BIOS .exe on the USB, inserted the USB and booted using F12.
I love old Dell desktop PCs! Especially the Vostro 200, but an Inspiron 530 recently gave me a real headache.
The most recent BIOS for the Inspiron 530 (BIOS 1.0.18) has all sorts of bugs.. not least that it will forget BIOS/CMOS settings (giving CMOS checksum error) and will need to have the time and date and boot order reset if someone switches off the mains.
The only fix for me, having renewed the CMOS battery and wiped the CMOS using the jumper (to no avail) was to restore an earlier BIOS (I chose 1.0.16).
Having created the Boot USB (following links on Google) and having put the old BIOS 1.0.16 on the USB and pressed F12 at startup I ran the old BIOS. But the DOS message I got was:
New bios version is low! ALL files removed!
This meant that I was trying to load an older BIOS and it wasn't going to allow me to do that.

It's been hard to know how to write over the last month, though on some levels I have wanted to. I always say that I miss Kent every day no matter what the significance (or not) of the day. But yes, Christmas was hard, the lead up especially. As well as missing Kent I missed the joy and excitement and let-go-of-your-worries-for-a-bit that December brings. Christmas Day was primarily another day without Kent, that's always the most significant thing, with Christmas just thrown in on top. On the day he wasn't there to (amongst a million other things) help me with my cooking, help Esther open her presents, play with Reuben and his new toys, hold my hand when we walked round the lake, and talk with me in bed about what a lovely day we'd had. I've tried hard to fend off envy of "everyone else" having holidays, time at the beach, family fun, taking a break, getting away from it all. I think over the last month, the difference between what my life is, compared to how it was supposed to be, has become even bigger, bigger than it has ever been. I suppose December and January will always bring this.
And January has brought memorial time, and marking of the 1st anniversary. In some ways it has meant very little; it was another day without him. They say that time heals, but I don't believe healing comes in one year increments, so the 17th was just another day in my journey of learning how to live like this. I am anxious about the idea that having done one year, it should be onwards and upwards from here. As I have said to some of you, I feel I have barely started this journey. I do give a nod to the young widow who commented that the first year anniversary was, for her, a positive day. She had survived the first year, and darn it, she would survive more.
One year also represents to me Kent being further and further in my past, which is a concept that terrifies me. The idea of him becoming a memory, and not a part of my current life, appalls me. Perhaps one day, as each year passes, I will think of it as one less year until I see him again... but I'm not sure that should be the focus or the attitude for a long time yet.
This afternoon we held a memorial service at Whenua Tapu. Peggy read a few remarkably appropriate words from Kent's 21st speech. Thalia sang Into The West (sung by Annie Lennox for The Return of the King), and we planted a small memorial garden.
400 times I have lain down in our bed without you. 400 times. I don't think I ever really realised there were SO many days in (a little more than) a year. I have recently taken down the calendar that I looked through a year ago, and discovered how long, blank and empty a year looks without you.
And tomorrow will be another tomorrow without you.

When you're sick, you want medical help - not someone asking to see your insurance card.
Starting last month, everyone who shows up at the emergency room of Washington County Hospital now sees a nurse first, according to Mary Ellen South, a hospital spokesman.
"This serves patients more quickly,'' South said. "And it puts care first and information second.''
South pointed out that waiting to be seen by medical personnel should be cut drastically with this speeded-up approach, designated Nurse First.
She added that critically hurt or seriously ill patients will always be treated first regardless of time or manner of arrival.

Flammable mists
Published: 02 June, 2017
A research proposal focussing on flammable mists is shortly to be released by the UK's Health and Safety Executive.
Mists of high-flashpoint fluids such as hydraulic oils, lubricating oils, diesel and heavier fuels can ignite and produce explosions at temperatures below their flashpoints.
A review in 2009 identified 37 historical ignition incidents involving flammable mists, including 20 explosions, of which nine were collectively responsible for a total of 29 fatalities.
In contrast with the well-established hazardous area classification for flammable gases and vapours atmospheres, the current guidance on mist hazards is limited, brief and largely qualitative, even if there is a legal requirement in the EU to consider flammable mists.
The HSE began work on this subject in 2011 with industry and regulatory partners; more recently it hosted a scoping workshop in March where the current knowledge gaps were discussed. These included the influence of orifice size and shape on mist formation; the influence of spray impingement; and the criteria for defining the flammable zone.
The research proposal is planned to be released this month (June). The HSE welcomes prospective partners and interested parties should contact: Dr Paul Grant, email@example.com

Using LEAPS With Collars
11/07/2012 7:00 am EST
Focus: OPTIONS
Today's election results will hopefully resolve one of the uncertainties plaguing the markets, but with many others still unresolved, the staff at Investopedia.com detail a strategy that can provide great protection in an uncertain market by limiting losses while locking in healthy, predictable profit.
Many investors have been in a situation where they wish to lock in profits while keeping their existing upside potential. For example, employees who have most of their 401(k)s invested in company stock may want to hedge against any sudden downturn in the company, while investors lucky enough to have struck gold with a solid stock may want to reduce some of their risk and lock in profits. Traditionally, this has been done by purchasing put options. The problem is that this strategy costs money. This article will cover how to lock in profits using a different and more economical strategy—collars.
Collar Basics
A collar is a stock option strategy in which an investor purchases a put while simultaneously writing a call against the stock position. The most common collars are constructed by purchasing one put and writing one call for every 100 shares of underlying stock that you own. The put provides downside protection, while writing the call finances the purchase. The end result is a "free" way to lock in profits in which the only downside is the fact that your upside is limited. After all, the written calls will force the investor to sell his or her underlying stock position if the stock price rises above a given price before expiration.
Here's what the option's profile looks like:
Here are the key calculations for this strategy:
- Maximum Risk = Cost of Put - Credit from Call
- Maximum Profit = Differences in Strike Prices - Net Debit Paid
- Breakeven Point = Current Stock Price + Net Debit Paid
Using these calculations, you should be able to quickly calculate all of the possibilities for your stock position. Note that there is no real breakeven for this strategy because it is a neutral strategy, but the above calculation will tell you how much you need to make up to break, even on the cost of setting up the trade in the first place.
Example 1: Creating a Collar
Let's say you own 100 shares of a stock that trades at $50 per share. To create a collar, you can sell a call option with an exercise price of $60 and buy a put option with an exercise price of $40. The call options sell for $1.20 each while the put options sell for $1.10 each. The position results in a positive credit to your brokerage account of $10!
Now, if the stock moves below $40 you have the ability to sell the stock for $40 with the put option you purchased, no matter how low the stock goes. If the stock rises to $60, however, you may be forced to sell at $60. While this is still a nice profit, you are not able to capitalize on any larger moves to the upside. Many consider this a small price to pay for the peace of mind that comes with full protection.
The dynamics of a collar can vary greatly depending on the situation. Investors have the option of writing zero-cost collars, in which writing calls fully offsets the cost of purchasing the puts (or may even result in a premium). Other investors may wish to increase their profit potential while just seeking disaster insurance, which can be accomplished by "loosening the collar," or writing calls that are more out-of-the-money. In the end, investors must decide whether they wish to preserve their capital or increase their room for profits.
In general, the longer the collar is, the better the risk-reward profile of the entire position will be. The longer-term hedges are cheaper to establish and, therefore, result in a less "risk" (cost) for the same "reward" (strike prices). The problem is that a longer time frame means you are locked in and can only get out by unwinding the position. This becomes a problem because attempting to unwind a position in a bullish time frame will rarely allow you to profit from the end trade. If the position becomes more volatile, however, the risk-reward proposition improves dramatically.
NEXT PAGE: LEAPS Index Collars|pagebreak|
LEAPS Index Collars
Collars are great for hedging against company-specific risk, but what about investors who are looking for a hedge against larger economic downturns? It may be possible to purchase collars on every stock in a portfolio, but it would be expensive and impractical to establish such a position. Instead, investors may consider purchasing a collar against an index that closely mimics their portfolios. But, this is not possible because you cannot write naked calls against such a large number of stocks! Investors may be comforted to know, however, that they can purchase index puts on long-term equity anticipation securities (LEAPS) as a viable alternative.
Example 2: Creating a LEAP Index Collar
Let's say you own a diverse portfolio of stocks with names such as Intel (INTC), Microsoft (MSFT), Exxon Mobil (XOM), Wal-Mart (WMT), Pfizer (PFE), and others. To hedge against the market risk of this portfolio, you can simply purchase puts against an index representing all of these stocks. The best choice would likely be the S&P 500 Index (SPX) because it contains all of these stocks. Just as with stocks, the quantity and strike price of the options depends on the amount of insurance you wish to have on the portfolio.
Now, if the stock market takes a sudden turn and some of your portfolio value is erased, you should theoretically make back nearly that same amount with your put on index LEAPS. The time and price at which you are able to begin collecting, however, depends on the time and price of the index LEAPS strikes you purchased on the puts.
The downside of the LEAPS index puts is that they can only be used on portfolios that already mimic an index. Portfolios holding many unknown small-cap or micro cap companies often cannot use this strategy as the movements would be too different. In fact, the strategy could become disastrous if the two do not have any correlation because you could suffer uncovered losses on both ends of the trade!
The Bottom Line
Collars can help investors hedge a portfolio by setting a maximum loss. In some cases, they can even result in a small credit. However, collars can become a problem when your stock starts making a lot of money because your upside is limited by the call options sold to establish the position.
Investors looking to hedge against macroeconomic risk can purchase puts against index LEAPS to make a collar-like position (without the upside limitation) that should (in theory) limit losses in the event of a market downturn. In any case, collars can provide you with great protection in an uncertain market by limiting losses to a set number while enabling you to lock in a healthy and predictable profit.

Following great benefits and the opportunities for the small and medium businesses, digital signage displays have become an integral part of the modern marketing strategies over the past many years. And the credit goes to the affordability of necessary components and general increase in technical know how.
These displays are capable to successfully catching consumers' eyes and bringing marketing material to life. Here in the article we'd like to share with you a couple of practices for retailers to follow when employing digital signage.
Video-based Content is appreciated
During a survey by the experts, it is found that 57% people prefer to see video-based content. No doubt, text-based and static image content are also compelling, but it is preferred to keep your focus on putting videos into their digital signage marketing strategy.
Spread the News
With the digital marketing advertisements, the modern consumers are not only keen to check out the products you are offering, but would also like to get some knowledge as well. The content should have a purpose and a goal it's trying to achieve a desired next-action that it compels consumers to take. Nearly 52% people prefer to know more about the sales and discounts you are offering.
Well I really don't need that product, but that's a deal I can't afford to loose.
What's next for the retailers employing digital signage displays
Now that you understand customers and what their preferences are, you can now start employing digital signage displays with the innovative changes and sit back and reap the rewards. While it all might seem easier, but no matter what type of content you are displaying on the boards, you need to make sure that each of the campaigns has a refined purpose and means of tracking its success.
Intersign Aps is the right partner you can go for in order to launch a successfully engaging and innovative marketing campaign via digital signage displays. We deliver the products that are engaging, creative and able to successfully attract attention of the target audience in your local market.

Highly Integrated 18-Bit DAC from Maxim Integrated Provides Full Functionality and High Accuracy for Industrial Test and Measurement
Maxim's complete solution integrates up to three components more than the competition to save significant design and debug time.
|Highly integrated 18-Bit DAC saves significant debug and redesign time.
Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. (NASDAQ: MXIM) introduces a highly integrated data converter that integrates all the external circuitry to make a high-precision voltage source for industrial test and measurement, factory automation, and process control. The new MAX5318 is a high-accuracy 18-bit DAC and is available now.
Maxim's solution integrates an output and reference buffer amplifier, essential functions that consume as many as three extra, external components in competitive designs. Maxim's integration saves the designer's development and debug time and minimizes space.
Key Advantages
- The highest integration in an 18-bit DAC: includes output and reference buffers
- Optimized performance for industrial and factory environments: very high accuracy (+/- 2LSB) over the -40°C to +105°C temp range
- Unmatched performance: negative supply option allows full INL and DNL performance down to 0V; competitive DACs only go down to 20mV to 30mV
- High precision signaling: fast settling time (3 microseconds)
Industry Commentary
- "Maxim's move into the 18-bit market is a smart one," said Susie Inouye, Principal Analyst of Databeans. "This segment is growing two to three times faster than any other DAC segment today."
- "Maxim's 18-bit DAC is a fast, simple, and low-cost solution for precision voltage sources in industrial and test system applications," said Michael Paiva, Senior Business Manager at Maxim Integrated. "With no external components, it offers designers a reduced development time for faster time-to-market."
Packaging, Availability and Pricing

Avatar Golf Game video has been leaked
Xbox Evolved has uncovered leaked footage of a Golf Game with playable Xbox Live Avatars. They claim the footage is definitely pre-aplha stage and the silence couldn't be any greater. In the video you see Xbox 360 Avatars simply playing a casual game of Golf. Take a look:
It has been speculated that it could be something to rival the popular Wii Sports title, but highly unlikely unless it is Project Natal enabled. This could just be an upcoming Xbox Live Arcade Golf Game or footage of something that may never be released at all!
What are your thoughts?

Back in School & Blog Update
I feel so badly that I'm ignoring my blogs, but my life has been very busy. The first update I want to share with everyone is that I'm back in college! That's right. I have taken the plunge to finish my degree. I'm very excited but it's also proving to be overwhelming. Yes that picture sums up how I'm feeling lately.
I have always regretted not finishing my degree. I had 33 hours under my belt when I was at Nicholls State University from 1993-95. For the last few years, I was on the fence about going back. I regained a lot of my confidence back after dropping 100 pounds. I still feel out of place being older, married, and already having a pre-teen. I have met some other classmates my age so I'm starting to get over that awkwardness. But being older than a couple of my professors doesn't help at all.
I decided to get my Associate's Degree in General Studies so I will graduate next spring in May. I'm debating if I should get my Bachelor's degree, but I'm not sure that I will. I'll worry about it next year. For now, I have plenty to keep me busy. One of the classes I'm currently taking this semester is a Dreamweaver computer class. I got the program heavily discounted as I'm a full-time student. I'm already learning so much. I really think I would like to learn more about managing websites and even SEO. I am taking a class next semester on social networking which I do have a good bit of knowledge but looking forward to learning more.
I am going to work really hard on getting this blog back on track since I've lost readers and page ranks. It's totally my fault, but I have some major plans for this blog. I am hoping to move this blog to my own host. Then I will give it a major overhaul design wise. Stay tuned as I am planning a big contest next month and unveil the new blog design.

Social Security Disability Lawyers
Serving the Maryland, Virginia & Washington, D.C. Areas
The Maryland, Virginia & Washington, D.C., personal injury lawyers at ChasenBoscolo are here to stand up for your rights, and we fight to win every time. Our phones are answered 24 hours a day, and we serve clients across Maryland, Virginia and Washington, D.C. Call us now at (800) 322-3380 or fill out a free contact request form.
Helping Clients
ChasenBoscolo has been helping clients for more than 25 years and our Maryland, Virginia & Washington, D.C., injury attorneys take pride in having the time to listen, solve and explain the complicated Social Security Disability benefits application and appeals process. We level with you because we care—that's how we operate.
Deanna: For more than 50 years, the Social Security Administration has helped workers and their families recover when someone becomes disabled and loses their job. But, over the past few years, the system has become so bogged down with the number of disability cases, that it's forced many to wait for years before cases are settled and money is paid out. Jeff Slayden is one of those left waiting for months.
Jeff Slayden: It's bad, it's bad. We're about ready to lose each other.
Deanna: Being out of work and disabled has really taken a toll on Jeff Slayden and his family.
Jeff Slayden: I got disabled because of diabetes, neuropathy, and went to try to get disability, and they denied me.
Deanna: He was denied twice, actually, and he's not alone. In some states, the Social Security Administration denies more than 80% of first-time applicants.
Cindy Slayden: I know there are people out there that are capable of working that are trying to get Social Security, so look into it a little, investigate, but don't tell someone "no,"—especially like my husband, who've had toes amputated, a foot amputated.
Deanna: More than two years later–and with the help of an attorney–Jeff and his family of six only receive a little more than $600 a month. Hiring an attorney greatly enhances your chances of approval. In some states, up to 85% of people who seek legal representation receive Social Security benefits, and in a time that makes more since.
Cindy Slayden: If a doctor says you are physically unable to work, then Social Security should accept that.
Deanna: Things you can do to help speed up your case include determining if you're eligible. Social Security defines being disabled as not being able to work due to a medically determined mental or physical impairment that could last for a year or more. You must also be under 65 years old and have worked and paid into the program five of the past ten years.
Deanna: Also, make sure you prepare accurate medical records. They are required to convince the government to provide benefits.
Deanna: File immediately, and pack your patience—as the average wait time for an appeal is almost a year and a half.
Deanna: Reporting for the EXP News Network, I'm Deanna Lambert.
Yes, you can get a Lawyer that Cares! ChasenBoscolo offers the No Fee Guarantee®, so you can rest easy knowing that you won't owe us an attorney fee unless we win your case. For us, it's not about the money. In fact, we know that if we take care of you, the money will take care of itself.
Our Maryland, Virginia and Washington, D.C., Social Security Disability lawyers will always take the time to get to know you. We'll listen to your case, plan a solution and explain how we're going to fight for you every step of the way. That's because we always put our clients' needs first.

Cleveland, 1977 — Grappling with a foreign policy crisis, the U.S. government identifies and targets a hapless rock-and-roller as a Russian spy in a classic case of mistaken identity for an innocent, ordinary, 'Wrong Man' hero… or is he?
Think of an unholy fictional union between the Rolling Stones and Alfred Hitchcock's North by Northwest.
Unlike any novel you have ever read, this one has a soundtrack. After all, a story whose characters are musicians should have… well… music. Right?

Voter turnout is predicted to be even lower this election than the previous two general elections. Understandable. When the election is portrayed as a Mr New Zealand contest, who cares who wins?
But a general election is not a popularity contest. Political parties should have to do more than thrust their leaders in front of a camera. There are important issues at stake. Continue reading

Amada's sister Cassey is one of the best private investigators in America, last year she was able to capture a dangerous criminal, SaraLiz, but after escaping from jail, Sara has decided to get her revenge over Cassey. In order to do that, she goes pay a visit to Cassey's sister Amanda at her fancy house in Malibu. Amanda is wearing a sexy bikini, just as SaraLiz, who pretends to be a friend of Cassey so Amanda would let her in. Once inside Amanda's house, SaraLiz knocks Amanda out and ties her up, also gags her mouth with a white cleave gag.. Cassey is not in town, so SaraLiz uses Amanda as a bate to get her revenge over Cassey's partner, Chrissy Marie, who also helped to capture her in the past. Sara takes Amanda's gag off and makes her call Chrissy and ask her to stop by her house. Once Chrissy is at Amanda's house, she founds her friend Amanda all tied up and gagged! before she could rescue Amanda, Chrissy also gets captured by SaraLiz, who ties her up and gags her with a white strip of cloth!! Now SaraLiz has the perfect bate to capture Cassey, but she made a mistake, she trusted her abilities to tie people of a little bit too much and leaves the girls tied up alone for a couple of hours, time that Chrissy and Amanda use to get free!! When Sara gets back, the girls are free and ready to capture Sara themselves!! Although SaraLiz is taller and stronger than Amanda or Chrissy, she can't fight both of them at the same time and finally gets overpowered, tied up, gagged and humiliated by the girls!!! MP4 FORMAT

From Aditi Khanna
London, Apr 18 (PTI) Indian liquor baron Vijay Mallya, who was arrested this morning by Scotland Yard, has been released on strict bail conditions by a UK court.
The 61-year-old tycoon appeared at Westminster Magistrates Court in London, where he was released after providing a bail bond worth 650,000 pounds.
Until his next hearing on May 17, Mallya must follow Britains extradition rules, which include a requirement that he remain at the address provided to the court.
The Indian government had revoked Mallyas Indian passport last year. He must surrender that revoked travel document and is also forbidden from possessing any international travel documents, according to well-placed sources in the UK.
Mallya has also been directed by the court that he remain in contact with UK authorities, with his mobile phone accessible at all times.
"Surrender of passport, arrest, bail ? all part of normal extradition proceedings," the defiant businessman said on Twitter.
His arrest triggers a long-drawn legal process, which will involve the UKs Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) arguing that Mallya must be extradited to India to stand trial on charges of fraud.
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and Indian High Commission in London had earlier submitted the Indian side of the arguments to the UK home secretary, Amber Rudd, for consideration of the extradition request.
That request was officially certified by court today with Scotland Yard enforcing the arrest warrant.
An extradition hearing will now take place at Westminster Magistrates Court, where the District Judge must decide whether extradition can be denied on any health or human rights grounds.
India and the UK have an Extradition Treaty dating back to 1993 but so far only one extradition has taken place under the arrangement ? Samirbhai Vinubhai Patel, who was sent back to India last October to face trial in connection with his involvement in the post-Godhra riots of 2002.
However, unlike Mallya, he had submitted to the extradition order without legal challenge.
As Mallya is fighting the extradition order, he will have the right to appeal and the case can go up to the UK Supreme Court. PTI AK ZH

This prom season I chose three of the looks I created to share with all of you. Each look was unique and personally selected by the girls themselves. They all looked so gorgeous and we were able to capture pictures of their dresses, makeup and hair. It was a long day but well worth it and enjoyed working with all three of these beautiful girls. If anyone has questions about the products applied or how the hair styles were completed please leave a comment below and I will do an additional post on each look. Thanks for stopping by!!

Omaha in Douglas County, Nebraska — The American Midwest (Upper Plains)
Baum Iron Company Building 1880
The Old Market Historic Walking Tour
This building has carried the Baum Iron name since the company purchased and occupied the property in 1905. Baum Iron Company was established in 1857 and was originally across the street. At one time this firm was the largest wholesaler of iron products in the Midwest, dealing in iron, steel, and heavy hardware, and doing business in Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Utah, and Wyoming. The cast iron storefront for the structure in the Italianate style was made in St. Louis and assembled on site in Omaha in 1880. The original owner was Steele, Johnson and Co., wholesale grocers. Originally two stories, the third and fourth floors were added in 1891, after which the wholesale hardward and cutlery firm of Lee-Clarke-Andreesen used the building. Sloan Allen and son David Allen, owners of Baum Iron, were a familiar sight in downtown Omaha from the 1940's through the 1980's as they walked to work from their home at 37th and Dewey Streets. In 2000 the company became Baum Hydraulics Corporation, selling nationwide.
