Clearing the power-on password
requires removing all Setup attributes that are programmed in the CMOS.
If the password is not known, clear it by
removing the RTC battery (located on the system board) as follows:
1. Turn off the computer.
2. Disconnect the AC Adapter.
3. Remove the Multi-media Expansion
Unit.
4. Remove
the battery pack.
5. Disconnect and remove the RTC battery.
6. Wait for five minutes.
7. Reconnect the RTC battery.
8. Reconnect the AC Adapter. Do not
reinstall the battery pack yet.
9. Turn on the computer to verify that the power-on
password has been cleared. If it has not been cleared, repeat all steps above.
Note: |
Remember to set the date and time the next
time the computer is turned on. |
