[RESOLVED] lost bios password

[[email protected]]

I've commited the ultimate faux-pas, I've lost my bios password. Does anyone know how to reset it (bios)? I have an Oak Technologies motherboard, and no manual.. any help would be appreaciated.

I believe that you get avoid that by clearing the CMOS, use the specified jumpers on the motherboard manual or pull out the battery for a while and reinstall.

Oops. I meant to say the website's motherboard manual. I presume that you have net access since you posted here.

You could use a utility that erases CMOS contents. It's like pulling off the battery.
You don't need to open the chassis, though.

KillCMOS utility is a good.

Good luck.
