I have a laptop that's locked with GeekSquad's Locked&Found and cannot boot due to it. Does anyone know ways to remove this or get around it.

Elaborate on the system boot process before purge / lockdown.
Boot path =
Board is powered and fans activated
Bios appears
Bios disappears
(Not in all) system voltage diag appears.
(Not in all) Harddrive boot device status message
(Not in all) Offers recover mode
Boots OS
Where in this boot path does it load the lockdown?
Edit:
I seriously doubt that it is in the bios, Bestbuy would have to either manufacture their own boards, Or get contracted with a manufacturer to modify their bios for resale.Gaiaonline Exploit Log:
