Most computers also allow for a password to be set at the BIOS level.  To bypass it, they'd have to physically open the case to your computer.

you go to your manufactures web site, support. fin dyour particular model computer and the find the bios download in support. download it and the flash program, be very very careful doing this, flashing your bios, if you make a mistake, you will probably damage your motherboard and make it useless. The give you instructions how, but you must follow them precisely

Power on password? does you mean the BIOS Password? Open your PC cover, look for the battery (normally, there is only one battery inside) then take out the battery for 10 seconds and put it back.  The password will be gone

If you mean the bios password then yes this way is a method that may work altho rather a dodgy method, i would suggest flashing the bios using the jumper settings - should have a scematic diagram in your motherboard manual. if the password is on windows or a program on the os then this will not correct it you will either have to brute force hack it/use a program or do a system refresh and loose any data that you needed to access within the passworded section.

before boot process, on the first screen of the computer press F1 or else enter setup. There you can always mould your machine the way it suits you.\n\nWARNING!!  Loosing your password anyway means no later hardware updates and BIOS reinstall. Moreover your PC is just not your's then. You can't edit any of the critical settings ever.

if your bios supports it you will have to put a password lock in there in order to do it. then remember to change your boot function as well. \n\nI could possibly guide you through it if i knew the type of bios you have...

Look for the BIOS maker and version when you boot up. Once you have that, you can go to the BIOS manufacturer's website and download (or purchase if it's a hardware BIOS) the update. The site should also have instructions on how to perform the update.\n\nGood luck!

Typically the power-on password can be defeated by removing the BIOS battery from the mainboard for 30 seconds or so and replacing it. \n\nI've done that to machines when I leave a job, just to tweak the tech guy who comes in afterwards.

Hi,\n\nWhen you turn on your computer, press esc, or press F2, or press F1, try which one that will be able to goes to the "BIOS"\n\nthere is normally an option under "Advanced"\nto put a password on your computer. so when you turn on your computer, it will ask for a password before it proceed to your windows.\n\ndboy\nMy Blog: http://dragonboy2006.blogspot.com

Disable it from BIOS or from device manager. Enable password protection for BIOS, don't let anyone else logon as admin if you disable from device manager. Or you can customize security in registry (careful with that).

if you're confident with taking a laptop to bits then you'll need to clear the cmos. the cmos is what stores the bios settings. there's a battery inside like a large watch battery. there should be some pins nearby with jxx (j=jumper and xx= a number) written on the motherboard. the pins should have a bit of plastic on between two of them. check in the manual for the correct settings to clear the cmos but if not then if it's on pins 1+2, try putting the jumper on pins 2+3 then leave it here for about 10 mins to be sure before switching it back. this will short circuit the battery and return the bios to default settings.\n\nif there's no jumpers near the cmos battery then you'll have to remove the battery itself. just pull the battery and and again leave it out for 10-15 minutes before returning it. \n\nhopefully the password should then have cleared

you can have a password similar to windows xp,to do this you go to control panel and to user options,where you can set a password which you have to enter each time you go on to windows 98\n  you can also go into setup(press del on boot up)and set a password in bios,although you must never forget this otherwise you will have to reset cmos by taking out the cmos battery on your motherboard\n  if that dosent work,go to b and q and buy a padlock for your room to keep the little rotter out

Anything in the bios could really mess it up.  Adding a security password and then forgetting it would be a serious problem.  Your best bet is to not mess with your bios or even update it until your computer's warranty expires.

If it's a bios password use "Killcmos" other than that you need to reformat and install a fresh OS.

if you mean a bios password, take off the cover, find the jumper labeled cmos, and change the jumper to on for about 15 senconds, that will clear password and stting back to factory default
