Forgetting password is a common phenomenon. I keep forgetting password which I don’t use for for considerable duration of time. And when it comes to motherboard password… oh boy. You hardly use them. So what happens when you forget you BIOS password. Now if your BIOS is AWARD BIOS then you are in some luck as I will tell you how to reset it.

1. Go to Start Menu, click on Run.

2. Type “cmd” (without quotes) into the field and press enter.

3. At DOS prompt, type the commands below and hit enter after each command.

DEBUG

-o 70 2e

Restart the computer.

*This method is supposedly to work with most versions of the AWARD BIOS.
