Has anyone seen the following error. I am trying to install O/S but this
message comes up:
1762 Configuration Change Has Occurred.
176 The system has been tampered with.
System-security - Administrator password required.
Type your password, then press Enter.
I cannot get past this screen, because no password works.
Thanks
B

Hi,
Sounds like a BIOS password, you may need to reset defaults (usually done by
moving a jumper on the motherboard) to get past it.

I took out the battery for about 4 hours but it still does the same thing.
The jumper does it get moved or take it right off. I tried moving it to the
next pin but didn't help.
It is an IBM board
The only numbers are: 2000 1 06P2525 01
11519K5609ZJ1HLS16JY44 FRU09K9982106
I couldn't find anything to do with my board
Thanks for any help
Bruce

Consult your computer's manual for instructions on accessing the built in anti-virus protection in your BIOS. Most new computers have the capability to watch for changes to the master boot record of the hard disk. An installation of a new operating system will definitely write to the MBR. Turn this feature off until your installation is complete.
