The difference can be in the BIOS manufacturer, if you want to reset it to the factory ones. by default from the manufacturer.

In the same way, it absolutely does not depend on the version of windows: windows 7, windows 10, windows 8 or xp. this is the prerogative of the BIOS itself.

Below we consider several options for what to do, including on laptop models.

The first way to reset BIOS settings in a laptop is to remove the battery

On the laptop motherboard there is a small battery that powers the CMOS chip. When it discharges after several years, the laptop does not remember the date, forgets the settings and, in some cases, refuses to work at all.

If you pull it out, you can instantly reset the BIOS, just unplug the power cord and pull out the battery.

Then unscrew the housing cover, and then with a match or a toothpick carefully move the small mounting bracket and the battery will pop out of the socket.

Usually this is a 3-volt lithium battery with a CR2032 label (costs about five dollars).

ATTENTION: on CMOS laptops, the battery is sometimes soldered. In this case, it is better not to touch it, but to use the following method.

If your laptop is modern, then unscrewing may not be necessary. Turn the laptop upside down and see if there is an inscription “CMOS”.

If there is, then a hole should be nearby. Put a paper clip or something in it and hold for about ten seconds.

The second way to reset the BIOS in a laptop is with a jumper

The second method is to reset the jumper, which is close to the aforementioned battery.

The jumper is described as “CLEAR CMOS,” “CLR CMOS,” or “RESET BIOS,” depending on the motherboard installed in the computer. The appearance of the jumper also depends on the laptop model.

By default, it closes two contacts. the first and second. To reset the BIOS you need to close the second and third contacts, wait a few seconds and move everything back to its original position.

If you do not have a jumper, you can use a conventional screwdriver holding it in this position for several to tens of seconds (the longer, the better).
