Unhappy

When you forget your personal password and just can't login to your computer,its frustrating but much more worst its when you just can't go into Windows due to the Motherboards password error and or lost.This is very hard for normal PC users to try fixing this problem and even those so-called PC Repair Techs don't have a clue on how to get started.PLEASE NOTE: Here am not refering to the program's password but rather the System Boards password.This "Password" is one which the Manufacturer of the Circuit Board creats and installs by default.Such "Passwords" like for instance: "SETUP", "START", "RUN", "123", "098", "CLOSE", "OPEN","NOW",and or the manufactureres initials,etc,.But lets suppose that you totally forgot and or even worst,the PC lost the power to bring up-front the password...now what? We Tech\Engineers do know certain things,tricks and knowledge that a regular PC Technician doesn't know.If by any chance your computer comes into this particular situation through the information here you can instantly fix the problem.Follow the simple yet easy to understand procedure. Turn OFF the computer and disconnect the cords from the wall outlet including the monitor,printer,etc,.Wait several minutes and than open the computer case.If you look carefully you'll see and or notice a small round battery located somewhere winthin the Motherboard.This Battery by the way powers the Time & Date on your computer but also helps hold and maintain special data for the Motherboard such as the Motherboards "Password".Do be careful when removing this battery for it is very delicate.Remove the battery from its component and put it aside and do nothing for the next ten minutes to one hour.Wait untill the Motherboard drains the hidden power from the Time & clock to component before attemptintg to re-install the battery.After several minutes to one full hour has passed,re-install the battery but before doing so,please check the the battery is in good working condition.Even know this battery do takes a very long time to drain down and or die out,it too needs changing and or upfrading.Once you've installed the battery into its original compartment,connect your computer and all its component.Once you've installed the batery,now you can go into the computer and as you turn it on do click on the "ENTER" and go directly into the BIOS Setting and simply install. Now start connecting everything togerther and re-comfigure the Time & Date.Its that simply
