I bought a Foxconn nT-A3800, and have been enjoying using it. I changed a setting in the bios and now it wont output a signal to HDMI or DVI. I read its a known bug and should have updated the bios before changing that setting. Now I have it all taken apart looking for a bios reset, but don't see one and cant find any information on the internet about it. Does anyone have any info to help me out?

I did the same thing.

I did find out that the CMOS battery is on the underside of the motherboard. However, in my case, unplugging the CMOS battery didn't help and rest the BIOS as I hoped.

Foxconn also mentioned that if you still happen to have keyboard functionality, usually indicated by the num lock light being lit up, you can hold the del key for 10 secs, press F3 then enter, then enter again, press f4 then enter twice again. This is supposed to reset the BIOS to default as well.

I wasn't successful at either way, so I RMA'd.

This is not an answer from me, but more of a question of have you been able to clear your cmos yet?

I found myself in the same predicament after disabling the CMS setting in the boot screen of the BIOS. I have written to foxconn, however I have not received a response as of yet.
