I have a gateway solo 2150 laptop computer. Still the harddisk is locked with a password and can't use it. Is there any program/software tool or any detailed info on how to remove that password in my laptop??? Can i do it manually/technically such as removing the screws, case, shorting a pins,etc...???

Is it a harddrive password or a bios bootup password? and forgive me for expressing a doubt about your integrity but why is it that you don't know the password to "your" laptop? I used to have a signature but it disappeared and I just couldn't be bothered writing another so please feel free to ingore this.
from my experience, you can't get around the hard drive password. Check gateway's website. I know that ibm doesn't have a way. So i just got a new one. hope that helps.
Please respond after you have solved your problem to notify who helped you and what solved the problem. Both sides benefit when you do.
Just like a space shuttle adventure, it is very possible but *may* not be practical to all. http://www.nortek.on.ca/hdd_password.aspx
