i purchased a nc6000 with a password protected bios-i disconnected the cmos battery and left it for 24 hours and it did not clear the password, however, after stripping the laptop down for the second time i noticed a small plug in board, when i disconnected this and left it for a couple of hours, the password was gone--if i can do it anyone can!
