Turn your laptop off and turn it over. Somewhere on the bottom, there should be a compartment that contains a battery that is used to keep time when the computer is off. Open the compartment, and take the battery out for at least 2 minutes, and then replace it. Your computer should unlock.

hi Jess
it's simple ,the password u gave in the setup is stored in the BIOS ROM which is a small chip capable of storing data,to store data it requires power and that power is supplied by a small battery located on the motherboard turn ur laptop and
Just remove the CMOS battery for few seconds say 10-15 seconds,and the everything in the BIOS will be erased automatically,and u will be able to use ur laptop again.
