What brand of BIOS do you have? If you have an Award BIOS then try one of the following passwords; AWARD_SW, j262 , HLT, SER, SKY_FOX, BIOSTAR, ALFAROME, lkwpeter, j256, AWARD?SW, LKWPETER, Syxz, aLLy, 589589, 589721, awkward, CONCAT NO-GO Huh The second method is through hardware settings. Unplug the computer and open the case. Look for a jumer on the motherboard to clear the BIOS password (refer to your manual for specific location), swap the jumper to clear the password. Third, check out your BIOS manufacturers web site for a utility to clear the password. Here are a couple of utility sites. www.unicore.com www.ping.be All the best, Tristan	Guest (0)

If that doesn't work, try resetting the BIOS using the Clear CMOS jumper on your motherboard(Refer your motherboard manual for details).	Guest (0)
