Make sure all the power cords are unplugged from your computer.
Go inside of your desktop tower casing, look on the motherboard for a small watch type battery.
Take the battery out, then keep pressing the power on the desktop tower for a few minutes to make sure all the power is gone from the PC.
Then place the battery back in, start up the computer again, your bios/cmos should be reset to its defaults now.
Have fun!
------- time out.

THIS ACTION IS NECESSARY WHEN YOU WANT TO WIPE YOUR HARD DISK. REMEMBER THAT ONCE IT IS DONE. ALL DATA IS LOST FOREVER.
TO SIMPLY DO IT. WHAT I NEED TO DO IS BOOT FROM THE DVD DRIVE. ONCE I AM HERE I CAN. CHANGE THAT BOOT DRIVE. PLEASE BE CAREFUL. DBAN DOES OVERWRITING THE ENTIRE HARD DISK WITH ZEROS. THIS PROGRAM WIPES ALL MY DATA. LEAVING A CLEAN HARD DRIVE.
