I stupidly set my in my BIOS for the system to turn on using a password (4 letters - love) I'm using a ps2 keyboard connection, but any speed I type the password in won't turn on the system. I don't know what to do as the power button no longer works either, so I can't even enter the BIOS. I'm completely stranded, any ideas!? Did you try clearing the cmos? -- Yes already tried everything hardware-wise. Must be some special way of turning it on! |
