Is it possible to access the BIOS if it is password protected? Any help would
be much appreciated.

Yes and no. The procedure should be explained in the manual for the
computer or motherboard. Some motherboards (most) will let you reset the
CMOS copy of the BIOS settings (back to defaults which will not have a
password set) but some will not because they assume the admin/owner really
doesn't want anyone to get in even by doing a BIOS reset.

Answered in another newsgroup. Please do not send the same message
separately to more than one newsgroup (called multiposting). Doing so just
fragments the thread, so someone who answers in one newsgroup doesn't get to
see answers from others in another newsgroup. And for those who read all the
newsgroups the message is multiposted to, they see the message multiple
times instead of once (they would see it only once if you correctly
crossposted instead).

If you must send the same message to more than one newsgroup, please do so
by crossposting (but only to a *few* related newsgroups).

Please see "What is the accepted way to share a message across multiple
newsgroups?" at http://smjg.port5.com/faqs/usenet/xpost.html
