BIOS helps in setting the startup process of a computer. In some cases, it is necessary to protect the BIOS settings with a password. This means that unauthorised access to BIOS is blocked. However, since this is something that is done rarely, it is possible to forget your BISO password. This will lock you out at that time when you need to enter the settings.
