Have you tried resetting the BIOS? On my mobo (motherboard) there is a
jumper that can be pulled out (or half way up the pin) to reset the
BIOS to it's factory defaults. I am pretty sure that means resetting
everything including any password that might have been set. I suggest
you look into that and to also check online for the manual of yr mobo,
if you don't already have it. The manual should explain and show you in
detail where the jumper is located on yr board...

None the less it is normally pretty easy to find, regardless if you
have the manual or not...

Good Luck and don't try that magnet thing :)
