I read the manual doesnt tell me how to reset the CMOS...on the motherboard layout map it just shows the CMOS battery...do I just remove that and plug it back in?

CMOS jumper is right under the end of the bottom PCI-e 16x slot.
Stupidest location ever, but hey, this is Asus we're talking about.

Unplug power.

Switch CMOS jumper.

Wait a bit.

Switch CMOS jumper back.

Plug in power again, & restart.

That's how i've always done it, but TBH, i've been lucky with my A8N32. Haven't had to reset its CMOS once yet.
