Solve : Is this the right page for BIOS reset??

1.	Solve : Is this the right page for BIOS reset??
Answer» Somebody pleeeaaasssee help me. I have passwords on BIOS, com & admin on a tower i recently got given. I have removed the battery, and switched the jumpers. But no matter what I do it makes no difference. I have a DELL OPTIPLEX GX 260. This is soooo fustratingHow come you are not in possession of the passwords? Can't you ask the PREVIOUS owner for them? In a normal desktop, BACK in the bad old days, we use a qbasic script to change a byte in the cmos and that forced a cmos reset. You'll need qbasic.exe from a MSDOS OS or the Win9x cdroms have it too. I'm sure the same thing can be done in VBS. Mind you, it is untested on a modern machine and if anything breaks then I can't help you. Code: [Select]echo off echo kill "temp.bas">temp.bas echo out &h70, &h2e >>temp.bas echo out &h71, &h00 >>temp.bas echo out &h70, &h2f >>temp.bas echo out &h71, &h00 >>temp.bas echo ? "Done" >>temp.bas echo ? "now reboot" >>temp.bas echo SYSTEM >>temp.bas qbasic /run temp.bas
