Some computer motherboards have an easier way to clear CMOS. If you have a manual, look there. If not, look for a jumper marked "CLEAR CMOS" or "SYSTEM CLOCK RESET" on the mainboard.
Usually it has 2 possible positions.
Turn PC off, move the jumper to another position, wait a couple of seconds, return it to its place and turn on PC. If you did everything right, the PC will forget everything (you must set the clock and date after this), if not - no harm done .
If you have not found such a jumper, you have to remove the battery and leave the PC turned off for maybe 3 - 4 days - no joking, had to wait so long once
