I just tried to install windows 7 into my laptop and it wont boot up now and i cant get into bios to put the cd as #1 boot.Bios is asking for a password that i didnt set up so I cant get in.So I cannot run anything off the cd it just goes to a black screen with a curser flashing in the corner.Is there any other way to fdisk or format the drive?

Thanks for any help

The problem I have is I need to boot from the cd cause for some dumb reason I cannot boot from the hd.as soon as it checks the hd it goes blank. Must have got some glitch while installing so i just want to reinstall or format the hd so it can get past the glitch.How can i get the password with out booting up.I already looked for the bios battery or jumper I dont see one any where.
