What if I have a BIOS password but I cannot enter it because the keyboard is not working properly? I still have a warranty (i used the laptop for 4months) however they imposed that I must pay for the motherboard replacement for $225 dollars, because I put a BIOS password. What should I do? Is removing the CMOS battery will reset the BIOS pass?
