Title: CMOS setup password Post by: Slam on February 04, 2014, 10:57:25 PM When I go into CMOS to set up my BIOS, it asks for a password, any idea how to get around this? Will removing the batt. clear the password?
Thank you. Title: Re: CMOS setup password Post by: Nashional on February 06, 2014, 03:03:41 PM Is this for a computer or a slot? For a slot, I don't know. For a computer, that won't do it. You'll need to find a reset jumper on the motherboard to clear the CMOS.

You'll need to find a reset jumper on the motherboard to clear the CMOS. Its a pc in the top box of a slot. I will post a pic of the board, I found 3 jumpers on it. I am not sure which one to use to clear the password. I numbered them in the pick to make it easier to point out a specific jumper.Title: Re: CMOS setup password Post by: Slam on February 06, 2014, 11:04:27 PM This is a parts board, but is exactly the same as the one in the machine.

If it were me I would try the one closest to the Battery. Can't help but notice your PCB is missing the Chip/Fan & battery ??

Can't help but notice your PCB is missing the Chip/Fan & battery ?? pic is of a parts board, if I can't get around the password, I'll just have to replace the bios chips. I have 3 of them with this problem :(Title: Re: CMOS setup password Post by: Slam on February 07, 2014, 01:26:20 AM Here's a pic of a few I have up & running. 3 down, 3 to go.
