- I've been using a DTK 486/33 since last December on my workplace. When I got
- that machine, I immediatelly put a password so that no one else but
- me could mess with BIOS settings. Now, I'm leaving that work place
- due to military service and I've completely forgotten what that
- password was. I've tried about 200 different words which would be the
- logical ones, but no use.
- There is no battery or accumulator on motherboard, so I can't simply
- remove it for couple of minutes and so wipe CMOS clean.
- Has anyone encountered similar problems? Any suggestions how to go
- forward? Is there any program which could help me?
-
- Thanks in advance,
-
- Kalle
