Ive just bought a second-hand RM CY250 laptop. It boots into XP but
wont let me enter the BIOS setup, there is a password and the vendor
doesnt know it. RM wont help at all.

Any ideas here?

Cant find that model on a web search. Try installing a hardware
analysis program like Belarc Advisor or Sisoft Sandra, and see what that
tells you about the motherboard. Chances are someone else made it for
RM, and the OEM docs might be available somewhere...

If you find the maufacturer then flash the BIOs and it will remove the BIOS
