This is one of the workaround to get the S3 machines working which gets locked on NVMe1 password screen 

By disabling the NVME1 password , user will be able to enter the login screen without the system security password on laptops



  • Hit F1 to enter into BIOS set up utility



  • Go to Security -> password -> NVME1 password 


  • Pop up screen will come to enter current password, put the current password as 1665West and leave the new password and confirm password blank, This will disable the password.
  • May take 15-20 min for changes to take affect, restart the machine.


Other work around is to replace the machine by submitting FS ticket
