To clear administrator and user passwords, power on the system with pins 2-3
connected. The administrator and user passwords clear in 5-10 seconds after
power on. Pins 2-3 should not be connected for normal system operation.
7.1 BIOS Default and Password Reset Usage Procedure
The BIOS Default (CMOS Clear) and Password Reset recovery features are designed to
achieve the desired operation with minimum system down time. The usage procedure for these
two features has changed from previous generation Intel
®
boards. The following procedure
outlines the new usage model.
7.1.1 Set BIOS to default (Clearing the CMOS)
1. Power down the server and unplug the AC power cord.
2. Open the server chassis. For instructions, see your server chassis documentation.
3. Move the jumper from the default operating position (covering pins 1 and 2) to the
reset/clear position (covering pins 2 and 3).
4. Wait five seconds.
5. Move the jumper back to the default position, covering pins 1 and 2.
6. Close the server chassis and reconnect the AC power cord.
7. Power up the server.
The CMOS is now cleared and you can reset it by going into the BIOS setup.
Note: Removing AC power before performing the CMOS clear operation causes the system to
automatically power up and immediately power down, after the procedure is followed and AC
power is re-applied. If this happens, remove the AC power cord again, wait 30 seconds, and
reinstall the AC power cord. Power up the system and proceed to the <F2> BIOS Setup utility to
reset the preferred settings.
7.1.2 Clearing the Password
1. Power down the server. Do not unplug the power cord.
2. Open the chassis. For instructions, see your server chassis documentation.
3. Move the jumper from the default operating position (covering pins 1 and 2) to the
password clear position (covering pins 2 and 3).
4. Close the server chassis.
5. Power up the server and then press <F2> to enter the BIOS menu to check if the
password is cleared.
