Hello! I have set password on my BIOS and went on my vacation. Yesterday I arrived home, but I cannot boot my Windows XP operating system, because I have forgotten this password. Please, tell me what I should to do to fix this huge problem. I hope that there is some way. I am thanking you in advance!

Hello! Well, only you need to do is following: open your computer case and take out CMOS battery. After some time (let’s say an hour), take back this battery. This will help you. I mean, this will reset BIOS password and next time when you turn on your computer you will not be asked for BIOS password.
