Warning: The following method for unlocking harddrives will delete all stored data
I am not responsible for any lost data, do not follow this procedure unless you want to delete all data from the harddrive.
Note: there are more advanced methods of unlocking HDDs that claim to save stored data
1) Boot into the Ultimate Boot CD (UBCD)
Download at:
http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/
2) UBCD->HDD->Diagnosis->MHDD 4.6 (or whatever the latest version on the UBCD is)
3) Run the following commands:
FASTERASE
(you will be asked to enter a password, pick whatever you want)
(FASTERASE will take a long time to run, it is erasing all data on your HDD)
(after FASTERASE finishes you will see that the HDD is no longer BUSY)
DISPWD
(choose to enter the user password then type the password you just chose)
Congrats, your HDD should now be unlocked.
