Dude
all you have to do is to take the CMOS battery out and leave the computer for 20 seconds and then put it back on

Some computers have a CMSO Battery but require a Flash out in the Flash memory using a Jumper setting.

Theres a jumber the is labelled CMOS Bat in the mother board.

It is NOT possible to reset a Bios password just by removing the cmos battery you will need professional assistance.

I unlocked My Acer Aspire 3500 in www.laptoprebirth.com They gave me very good service and it worked like a charm!!!!

Thank you and hope this helps.
