yup i found it but it just beeps at me and it says enter you built in HDD2 password.can it clear itself if i take out the cmos batterey? it wont even boot without that password first..
 
No, the CMOS battery trick used to work before they started using non-volatile RAM (NVRAM). The only way to get to where you can change the HDD password is through the BIOS .. for which you need the BIOS password.

I saw a couple incident reports where it seems like a power problem - abrupt power loss for example - can have the effect to get the password challenge when one didnt exist before.
