I don't know if you mean going into the BIOS setup and telling it to reset
That's what I meant. There's definitely an option in the BIOS that restores it to factory settings. Will that do it? I'm not sure if there's a jumper on the mobo.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.
Huh. I don't watch either show.

Will that do it? I'm not sure if there's a jumper on the mobo.
Most motherboards have a clear CMOS jumper. It is a more complete reset than resetting the BIOS via the BIOS menu.

I feel bad for the employees, and reduced competition is never good for the consumer, but it's hard to feel sorry for a company whose CEO lent a private jet to Newt Gingrich in the early 90s.
(Yes, I'm still bitter; I'm expecting to feel better Tuesday afternoon)
