How to disable a forgotten BIOS password

If you have forgotten your BIOS password, there are a lot ways to diasble or crack it. This is one of them but I would say that this one is more effective than the rest because the rest of the ways does not Guarantee you that it will Crack the BIOS password while in this case the cracking is guaranteed since in this we will remove the functionality of password protection of the BIOS.

Follow the steps below:
1) Boot up windows.
2) go to dos-prompt or go to command prompt directly from the windows start up menu.
3) type the command at the prompt: “debug”
4) type the following lines now exactly as given…….
    -o 70 10
    -o 71 20
    -quit
     -exit
Note : Must put space in between o, 70/71 and 10/20.
5) exit from the dos prompt and restart the machine
6) When you restart your computer, you will get an error message saying "BIOS has been changed" or "BIOS settings are incorrect". Just enter the BIOS settings like your normally do to change your settings.

This has been tested in Award Bios.
There seems to be some issue regarding display drivers on some machines if this is used. Just reinstall the drivers, everything will be fine.
To be on safe side, just back up your data.
The use of this code is entirely at ur risk.
