Please do not try any of following procedures if you are not familiar with computer hardware.

A. By Using the Motherboard Jumper:
In most motherboards CMOS battery is soldered, which makes it difficult to remove the battery. In this case we use another method.
Almost all motherboards contain a jumper that can clear all CMOS settings along with the BIOS password. The location of this jumper varies depending upon the motherboard brand. You should read your motherboard manual to check its location. If you don't have the manual then look for the jumpers near the CMOS battery. Most of the manufacturer label the jumper as CLR, CLEAR, CLEAR CMOS, etc.
When you find the jumper, look carefully. There will be 3 pins and the jumper will be joining the center pin to either left or right pin. What you need to do, is remove the jumper and join the center pin to the opposite pin. e.g. if the jumper joins center pin to left pin, then remove it and join center pin to right pin. Now wait for a few seconds and then again remove the jumper and join the center pin to left pin.
Make sure to turn the PC off before opening the cabinet and resetting the jumper.
B. By Using Software:
I have found that BIOS/CMOS Password Recovery Tool is the most effective.:
BIOS/CMOS Password Recovery Tool is a program that works instantly to remove any lost or forgotten BIOS/CMOS password. Simply boot your PC to DOS and execute the program, and get access to forgotten BIOS/CMOS passwords in just seconds

If your computer still working, and you know your BIOS password..
you just go to BIOS
>turn off your computer
>once the computer is off
>press the power button and before it boots up keep tapping F1 to access BIOS
>when you are in BIOS of the computer
> select the security TAB
> select reset password / removed password
Else if the computer is not working because you forgot lready the password?
Call Tech support of LENOVO: 8774536686
As per Depot they considered it as CID (customer Induced Damaged)
There is no way from them to remove the BIOS password if you forgot it, they will replaced the mother board of the system.
Hope it helps...
The password is there to protect you from having a thief steal your notebook computer, and then using your computer, because the thief won't know the password.
