he he how do you reset cmos

Hey, don't take insults like that from someone who actually spent good money on a car powered by ford's 4.6L paperweight.

And you just short out the proper pins on the motherboard before turning the power back on.

Or remove the CMOS battery for atleast an hour, maybe overnight depending on how old a system we're talking about.
 
On your board usually close to your battery, there will be your 3pin cmos with a jumper on it. With your power turned off you will move the jumper over to the other side. You can also remove the battery. It should take no more than 10 seconds to a couple of minutes. You then replace the jumper and the battery. Be sure to enter the bios and reset any settings you might need as it will be at default. Keep asking questions. If you have a manual it should show you which is the cmos jumper. It will also be identified on the board in very small type.

Just removing the battery won't reset the settings, but Shogan191 was suggesting this in addition to moving the jumper too. It does reset everything, even teh date and time so be prepared to enter the BIOS to set everything up again.
