Ok I have a friend that got a older quantex model ts30t i'm guessing it runs windows 98 or ME, anyways it wont boot up at all because the bios wants a password and no one knows it. She took it to a shop and said the cmos battery is soldered onto the actual motherboard so they couldnt easly remove it. Does any know a solution to fix this issue or do you know where I can get a bios flash update thax...

You shouldn't be able to flash the bios without the password...

Remove the battery, let it die,
hope they dont use EPROMS like dell.
replace battery
Be happy
