    Dudes, do any of you know how to reset the CMOS on a Seimans Laptop.

    PLEASE Dontgive me the Pop the jumper outthing, Itryed that.

    You cant even get into the PCcasing to locate the battery or the jumperto reset it.

    A Pheonix Master BD Pass would be nice if you have them.

    Please EMAIL IT!

    On some laptops you can do it like this:

    Take out the battery. Unplug it. Hold down the power button for at least a minute.

    Plug her back in. . .

    That's how it worked on mine anyway. . .

    Can you go into bios and from there chose the option to reset it to it's factory defaults (via UI...not Hardware)?

    Works on my desktop.

    Afternoon kb. Been a while.

    I still maintain my hammer theory. Or the good old classic, if the BIOS isn't patched up, and you can get into DOS...

    dir >clock$

    Slap that into an old machine, and watch it fall over faster than someone drinking a pint of 85% absynthe... Outputs straight into the BIOS... *cackle*

    Aiight chip dude!
    came righttome, but as you feared, the BIOS is stitched up a right treat.

    Norally I would reset it via Jumperetc, but stillno use.

    You stillgot that sexy little proggy you had for that massive super tower of yours, drop it on a floppy and post it down to me if you can!
