|A friend brought me a system in which the motherboard password is enabled
|but he's forgotten the password. As a result, on boot up, when you hit
'DEL'
|to get to the CMOS setup you're presented with a small screen that asks for
|the password. Since we don't remember the password we're stuck there.
|Is there any way to work around this problem and disable the password so
|that we can get to the setup menu?
|Richard.

There should be a jumper on the mainboard to short the BIOS out, which will
reset it, or you could disconnect the battery for a while and that will do
it too.
