Is there actually a way to defeat the BIOS password if you've set an admin password on the BIOS and disabled booting from media other than the hard drive? I've got a motherboard that I set a BIOS password on and I modified the board itself to not have a clear CMOS jumper setting. I inadvertently removed the jumper pins by desoldering them after clearing it, and can no longer get the board to boot due to the fact that it's older and needs to be flashed, but we again have the chicken and egg syndrome. Any suggestions, other then removing the BIOS chip and getting an EEPROM burner?
