Hi,

I recently bought two Elitedesk 800g2 dm from a refurbished company. I tried to reset the AMT password by unconfiguring it in the bios. After reset I get the message to unprovision the Intel MEBx. I press y and after 40 seconds it reboots. But I still can’t log in to the AMT configuration screen.

The default admin password “admin” doesn’t work. I have already checked the correct keyboard language but that doesn’t seem to help. The refurbishing company also doesn’t have the password and refuses to help me.

Does anybody know a way to reset the MEBx interface so I can use AMT with Meshcommander? Maybe dump a new bios on it by using a SPI flashchip reader? Or some other suggestions?
