ALL DATA IS LOST FOREVER. bighead1991 Posted at 9:38 am on Nov. 19, 2008 If you are on a desktop, 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!
