How to reset your BIOS password if you forgot it

[HIVOLTAG3]

There is a configuration mode or something like that which I haven't used in the while.

its not as hard as u think currpt da bios even they hv used many no of bios chips cos all r progmble romz..even the tools they hv released to update da bios,hv same ability...

It is HARD.But as I mentioned windows updates as a failure mainly due to this.But as an ASUS owner,This isnt a problem.With QFlash I just need to put the BIOS ROM in a flash drive and boot it up and start QFlash.Voila,Its done.

The only advice is, DO NOT FLASH FROM WINDOWS

Still, there is a risk of a bad flash. That's why the manufacturer insist not to flash BIOS unless an update specifically addresses an issue you are facing. Though I love to update the BIOS whenever there is a newer version, I do not let my feelings get over me (anymore)

I've never faced a bad flash,VGA or mobo since 2002,So still continueing flashing.Will learn it the hard way.Besides ASUS have great flash utilities(EXCEPT windows )So no worries for me.Anyway I have a good practice of this as I flashed many mobos in my friends shop.So the experience may be the factor in this.

Any of my mobos do not let the password go by this manner.

ya almost evry hardware has it own bios rom...so if u intrsted u can update any of these if thr manufactrs release the tool+rom file...

there is no risk if u updat da bios with correct tools+romfile...
ihv updated my dvd r/rw + router mobo..vga and soo on no probs soo far except 1...
ihv lost ma samsung cd-rom..thn i replace da rom wit older samsung cd,rom..its work like chrm..

so
for newbies, my advice is do not update bios if u dont face any trouble wit thm,even bios updating is kiddies work..

nd use only manufactures linkz to download romfilez+tools...

or

thr is no warry whn u hv dual bios or same functinz...
