OptiPlex GX520 BIOS/CMOS RESET
I am somewhat of a no0b at doing technical work, though I have done a lot of hardware/software troubleshooting for many people.
I am working on a friends system right now, who can boot to the windows screen where it asks for a username/password.
He has forgotten his password and my question is:
I have followed all the steps to reset both the BIOS/CMOS but nothing bypasses the login in or resets.
Ive done the PSWD/RTCRST jumper switching
Ive removed the CMOS battery(seems pointless on these PCs)
Also, I am just curious: I see the three prong set where jumpers are usually located but its default location is on PSWD?
I NEED HELP! What am I doing wrong!
