CMOS Reset on The Fly Part Two

*WARNING!!*Do this at your own risk Benchaddix.com nor I take any responsibility for any damage to your hardware or software when doing this mod you are doing this AT YOUR OWN RISK

 

This is the second part of this mod it is for motherboards that don’t come with a cmos clear jumper and only have two pins to clear the cmos its a little easier then the first part but basically the same thing

 

Supplies needed.

-Soldering iron

-Solder

-A simple push button switch

-One led off an old case with wire and plug still attached

-Hot glue gun and one glue stick *optional*

 

Now lets see what we got for this version

 

 

Nothing much really just a plain LED and a push button switch so lets get started.  First you need to cut the LED off so it is out of the way then like on the first version if the two wires are not next to each other you need to move the wires to where there side by side.  Strip the wires down just a little bit because you don’t need a lot to solder it to the contact, now touch the tip of the soldering iron to the contact on the push button switch so it heats up and add a little solder to it so you can solder the wire on it. *see picture*

 

 

Now that you have that done take the wire holding it as far away from the tip of the soldering iron as you can and still control the wire and where it goes, place the end of the wire that you striped on the contact and touch the contact with the soldering iron until it becomes a liquid, make sure the wire is on the wet solder and pull back the soldering iron and wait three seconds or so for it to re harden and then you can let go of the wire now that it is attached.  Slightly tug on the wire no need to yank it but just a little tug to make sure it is fully connected repeat with the other wire and it should look like this *see picture*

 

 

Now you connect it to the two pin cmos clear header on your motherboard you can find its location by reading the manual if you don’t have a manual go to the manufactures site and download the pdf manual and look in there, after that when you want to reset the bios just turn your pc off and make sure it has no power connected to it and push the button and it will reset your cmos.  : ) Now I recommend adding some hot glue to where you soldered your wires on to make sure it wont come loose when installing it just to be on the safe side and it will look something like this.
