BIOS Password reset

Generally, taking out the CMOS battery (the one fitted to your motherboard) and leaving it out for a couple of minutes, to allow the CMOS power to drain out, will reset your BIOS password to the motherboard manufacturers default.


NOTE: Doing this will set all your BIOS settings to default values!

I agree with the sense of caution expressed when attempting any low level system adjustment, but IMHO the CMOS battery removal is quite safe.
