[JunglerNCW]

Hey forum....

I want to know if it will be fine for me to remove my motherboard's battery and place it back again in orther to reset BIOS.

And if it is ok will i be prompted for any kind of a password later on when i start up my computer?

I don't think it will reset the BIOS.

It will however reset your date and time.
There is usually a jumper or a clear CMOS button that will be able to do what you are after.

Please read the motherboard manual book for further instructions.

I've alrdy used the CMOS jumper... didnt help me to fix what i wanted.. i just wanted to know if it will be ok the remove the battery and put it back again.

*So you say its fine and it wont ask me for any kind of a password?

Removing and replacing the battery will clear the Bios and BIOS password. It will NOT change any passwords you may have in your software such as a Windows administrator or guest p/w.
