Deleting a Password
If you forget the passwords you set up through CP6000 Setup, the only way you can reset
the password is to erase the system configuration information where the passwords are
stored. System configuration data is stored in CMOS RAM, a type of memory that
consumes very little power.
Erase Old Password
You can drain CMOS RAM power by using the CMOS drain jumper on the motherboard,
or by removing the battery. CMOS RAM looses it content including the password when it
is drained.
Note:
For more information on draining CMOS using the drain jumper, see the motherboard
user's manual.
