I see a used CF-33 on eBay with a BIOS password.
Will disconnecting the battery clear the password?
If not, what does it take to do that?

[@Bobjohnson]

Sadly you cannot reset the BIOS password unless you know the BIOS password. So, if someone is selling it with the BIOS password, odds are that they do not know it and their just trying to get rid of it. We would highly recommend you to avoid purchasing one with a BIOS password becuase then your going to be the one stuck with a non-functioning laptop. Hopefully this helps, thanks for watching.

What is the CMOS Battery Size so that I can purchase it before I replace it?

[@Bobjohnson]

Call us at 302-659-2727 and we can get one for you. The cost would be $19.99 plus shipping. Thanks for watching!
