As far as I know, if the BIOS has a password set, you can reset it by removing the battery and inserting it again.
Why is this so? Do all the CMOS settings reset to default after such a manipulation with the battery? What exactly happens to all the settings when reinserting the battery?
Yeah, but what happens next? Default settings will be loaded into it when I will turn power on? – None – 2011-06-08T12:59:07.040
2You normally write code so that "setting not set" means to use a default value. A BIOS wouldn't be different. – DarkDust – 2011-06-08T13:00:21.017
