Reset your BIOS using a jumper.

How can we know the password? The original assembler who assembled the PC may not be available.

not possible to recover the BIOS PW :(

Can anyone of you help me on the above?

One think which can be done is to reset the BIOS... there are 2 ways, via jumper or via bettery reset..

Jumper Settings

Locate this jumper as show in the bellow image !!!

there are 3 pins, like * * * the pin would cover 1 and 2 pin which is the default config... - - * so take the pin out and put it as 2 and 3 cover like, * - - start the system :D the BIOS should revart back to the default shipping factory settings... !!! now power of the system and restore the jumper to default 1 and 2 cover settings :D start the system once again to do you work :D

next option removing the battery :D

locate the bettery as show in the picture :)

remove it and then wait for 5 pins, plug it back to start the system :) it would be restored to the factory settings :)

Thanks Choto..I searched but i did't get it...:)
Fine you have given the solution..But, my problem is there is a password for the brand new motherboard only..So if I set it to the factoty settings then there will be no changes...Am I right sir?
