The BIOS password may be cleared from a Dell Dimension by moving the password jumper on the motherboard.
The location of the password jumper on a Dell Dimension motherboard can be found by reviewing the Dimension User Guides.

- Locate the 3-pin CMOS password reset jumper on the system board.
- Remove the jumper plug from pins 1 and 2.
- Place the jumper plug on pins 2 and 3 and wait approximately 5 seconds.
