I want to change my boot order, but when I tried entering BIOS, I'm asked for a password. I never set up a password, and I'm trying to figure out how to disable this feature. The MOBO in question is an MSI P45 Platinum edition. I'm going to put a tech ticket in with MSI, but was wondering if any of you know how to do this. Thanks.

Does it matter if I use the clear CMOS button on the back of the boad, or should I pull the battery?
