Does anyone know how to reset the BIOS on a Dell Latitude CPt S600GI.I have a user who has the admin pasword set in "setup", but can't remember the password.

Thanks,

Turn off. Remove the power cord. Remove the bios battery and let the system set for a couple of hours (preferably overnight). You will have to re-enter all the bios setings.

Ignore my previous post - I didn't notice it was a laptop.
From the Dell website:"If you forget any of your passwords, call Dell. For your protection, Dell’s technical support staff will ask you for proof of your identity to make sure that an unauthorized person is not trying to use the computer."
