[Misc] KM C658 HDD Lock password

[apn821]

I have a C658 with a "Rest HDD Lock Password" display. I've tried the serial # but that doesn't work. I know there is a specific set of numbers that have to be input along with some 0s.
Hopefully someone can help me out with this. Otherwise, I have to replace the HDD.

The solution is easy, extract the HDD, mount it in a PC, delete the partitions and leave it formatted in FAT 32. You put it back in the machine and it will tell you that the disk is not formatted, that it is necessary to format it, you say yes, you do the logical formatting and in a minute you have it ready.

Just do a physical format in service mode, then logical format. it takes a while but it will get rid of hard drive lock password error. You will need to reload movie data

The easiest way to solve this is try that long password in my previous post. For some strange reason it works!
