I maintain a variety of standalone computers in my school and have recently
found that one of my pupils has interfered with the CMOS settings and has
password protected his work. The BIOS is an Award version on an oldish
(c1993) PC marketed by Research Machines in the UK. The OS is Windows 95.

Does anyone know how I can get around the password protection?

TIA
