Nope, unless you know the BIOS password, get in the BIOS, and reset it from there.

 

But some laptops might have weird things, so go look up the specific model's manual and take a look in there to make sure there's no roundabout way of doing it.

Want to know which mobo to get?

Spoiler

Choose whatever you need. Any more, you're wasting your money. Any less, and you don't get the features you need.

 

Only you know what you need to do with your computer, so nobody's really qualified to answer this question except for you.

Many, many manufacturers set backdoors on their laptop BIOSes. Google it, you may have luck.

Another thing is Supervisor password, user password and admin passwords. A few programs let you for a corruption on certain writeable places in your BIOS CMOS. Beware, doing this wrong = brick. Dont take it as a trivial workaround. It is more like the last resort .

 

The obvious ones would be:

Changing the CMOS physically.

Knowing the password and clearing it manually.
