I have got a second hand computer (built-in) from friend of mine,,,,,he does know what is the BOIS's password , even he does not know what is a BOIS.
I tried to reset password by removing the battery for more than one times and for about 30 minutes (I think this is an enough time), and it did not reset the password
zillah, hopefully the powercord was disconnected from computer or powerbar as some computers still have 5volts going thru it even after windows shuts down the computer. if have an optical mouse then see if it's light is still on when windows shuts down.

The password is removed , but I do not know now which one solve the, removing the battery for 16 hours and retuning back or holding down the <insert> key on the keyboard, because both of them happened in the same time.

Actually the power cord removed (unplugged) from the power supply

More likely the battery removal, but the most important things is that it's fixed.
