Clear password: With the computer turned off, remove the jumper, and then turn on the computer.
Clear CMOS: With the computer turned off, move the jumper to the pins to the right (these instructions work when the motherboard orientation is such that CLR_CMOS can be seen below the pins).
note:
Because moving the jumper from the password pins resets the password, clearing the CMOS necessarily clears the password simultaneously.
