Let us know the version of your BIOS (full info) and, if possible, the
model# of your motherboard and we can give you an accurate answer.
But the easy way is to remove the battery of the motherboard and then
replace it  again.

If/when you remove the battery, wait five minutes to make sure it is
clear. In fact, I would suggest replacing the battery as they will
eventually lose power and can cause mysterious system problems and
headaches.

Many motherboards have a jumper for password reset, but popping the
battery and being done with it is the best way IMHO.
