theres suppose to be a jumper on your mobo that you can use to reset the cmos. look in your manual for it.

You could also try holding down the Insert key on your keyboard, then starting your computer up from cold. That worked for the nforce2 boards.

Yeah locate the jumpers and change them to the setting in your manual that say they will clear your CMOS. Or if your hands are big like mine get some tweezers >)
