BIOS Password

I have a Dell Optiplex GL300. There is a password on the BIOS. How do I reset the password? Thanks.

If you don't remember/know the password, you should be able to reset it by opening up the computer and toggling a jumper on the motherboard. Check out the specs of your mobo.

Else, if you know the password, go into CMOS Setup by hitting Delete, Esc, F2, F7, or some other key during boot.
