You want to find out your bios password? did you forget it or what? ;s

Did you try taking out the battery?

Google for backdoor passes, they usually have one... but if not, do what iGod said, take out the battery.
Looks like a big watch battery, only need to pop it out for a minute then place it back in and the BIOS will be reset to default (including no password)

i know the battery trick . this will be my last choise .
as i said , the AWARD_SW password worked untill the bios was updated from v4.5 to v6.0 . that's why i'm asking how to downgrade the bios .

i found some programs to find/reset my bios password ( o.0 ) but those are craps , no effect

can some one explain how can i get my bios back to v4.5 ?

your pass should still work to my knowledge even if you upgrade your bios, but i assume your pw doesnt work, i say just take out the battery.
