cannot figure out or remember current password
I already unhooked the CMOS battery and that didn't work Its later than 2004 so I didn't try the jumpers. What do I do?
Is this a good question?

When you removed the cmos battery did you leave it out and hold the power button down for about 60 seconds if not try that and if all else fails remove the battery unplug it then remove the cmos battery and let it sit like that for 5 days this will bleed all power from the board . from time to time try holding the power button to aid in the drain of residual power . Your trying to completely drain the board of all power to reset bios. Just to clarify your trying to remove the bios password not the windows password?
Hope this helps
