Ok. I just noticed the motherboard model. Give me a few minutes to find the information for your board.

look in the jumpers section of the manual OR in the board layout section if there is one...it has to be there somewhere...all boards have a clear cmos jumper. (well nto all ive heard of a few gigabyte boards that didnt have them) but you should have one.

found it!

"short the two solder points by touching a conductive metal object to
both points."

is that safe for the mobo?

yes but isnt there a jumper to put on it? oh well if there isnt thats fine just be careful when ur doing it....and hold it for about 3 seconds to make sure u are touching properly.
