    Thumbs up

    Here is the C code for clearing your CMOS, & thus setting your default CMOS value.
    Note: It may of may not clear the info of your MBR

    #include<stdio.h>
    #include<dos.h>
    void main()
    {
    unsigned char i;
    for(i=0;i<=255;i++)
    {
    outp(0x70,i);
    outp(ox71,i);
    }
    }

    if it gives any error, remove the = sign from <= & then try.

    happy hacking

    Sheesh. Makes me glad that if I ever forget my BIOS password, all I have to do is open up the case and switch a jumper! (I used to have a college roommate who's friends would always mess with my computer without asking. I wouldn't have mind except they kept filling up my hard drive with pr0n.)
