Can't Enter Setup When Booting

[Impediment]

Is there a way to eliminate all passwords and start fresh with no passwords? I can not enter Setup when booting. The computer asks for current user password and there is none. I have a supervisor password in the setup but it is not accepted.

I assume you are talking about BIOS passwords as opposed to NT passwords. Normally, there will be a jumper on the motherboard which will basically clear out the CMOS of everything ... including passwords.

Sometimes you can also take the battery out of the motherboard, unplug the PC, wait a couple of hours and then re-install. This, too, clears everything out of the BIOS.

Hope this helps... |-0 - Bill
