thanks a lot for posting this up. I was having the same type of problem with my machine because I tend to forget my pw's i was careful and it worked easily thanks again for the tip

I did this, and Windows is still prompting a password for my account... Maybe I left too many fingerprints on the battery and now it has corrosed, gotta try again!

This will NOT Clear the "Windows" Password. In some cases it will not even clear the BIOS password. Just happens that it appears he has an old computer and it worked for him. Again this only clears the BIOS password not windows as he has stated. You can really do more harm to your computer this way. Be smart and make a windows password recovery disk, before you forget the password. Do a search for "windows password recovery disk" on the internet. That way there is no need to "Hack" your windows.

If you don't properly ground urself before handling the inside of ur pc than u might discharge (create a static shock) on the circuitry, and that would lead to some expensive replacement.

But none the less this is the easiest way to reset the BIOS is you lost or forgot your startup password. Just take care when doing it.

need a bigger hammer there at the beginning.

1 to comment.....But thats not why.....

That's easy.

But there is one ting you need to know. Don't tuch the battery like that, you may decharge it when you hold it ( i said may).
And then you need a new one to save the change you do in BIOS. So please use something else....

the video doesn't play

Don't handle the battery like that. Leaving fingerprints on the contacts of the battery, in this case the top and bottom, will lead to corrosion over time. If you pick a battery up hold it not on the contacts and wipe the contacts on your shirt before you put it back in.
