Excuse my re-use from a more recent thread:
Removal of the CMOS battery or hitting/taking cap off the jumper on the
motherboard are 2 among more solutions, I suspect. The hard part is
opening the unit. If you have a vendor-specific password reset utility,
use it. The third option is similar to the first and involves exposing the
motherboard. Be careful.
Best wishes,
