Remove a Bios Password

This is the easiest way to do it

1-The simplest way to remove a BIOS password is to simply remove the CMOS battery. A computer will remember its settings and keep the time even when it is turned off and unplugged because these parts are powered by small battery inside the computer called a CMOS battery. If we pull out this battery, the computer will forget a lot of its hardware settings, including its BIOS password.

2-You can use a bios password cracker, but chances are that this can take forever to crack. Link

3-The last step requires you boot into DOS and use DEBUG to corrupt the bios. On the reboot, the Bios will realize their is an error and resets everything to factory defaults, eliminating the password. Here are some helpful tips to make a usb bootable disk.
