Hi ,
Compaq systems uaually have F1 or del key for CMOS setup, but if
power on password is set i dont think you will be able to boot even from
floppy drive.
If you are able to boot from floppy (Not likely) or any other means....
* All you can do is, run any program that wipes out the CMOS data, but this
will wipe out all other info also. For this you will find lots of programs
available on net.
* Or open the system, short the CMOS battery discharge jumpers (if you know
which one or if you have the motherboard manual)
Regards,
Avi.
