How might one remove a forgotten BIOS password, particularly in a situation where the prompt appears prior to accessing the BIOS itself? It is worth noting that removing the CMOS battery has proven ineffective in resolving the issue.

If that's the case, reset the BIOS settings.
Here's how to do it:
First, disconnect all power cables,
then carefully open the case,
carefully remove the graphics card,
and locate the 3V coin battery.
Remove the coin battery,
then hold down the BIOS button for 20 seconds
to discharge the static electricity. After that,
reinsert the 3V coin battery,
reinstall the graphics card,
close the case, reconnect the power cable,
and give it another try.

I have already attempted that method, and unfortunately, it has proven ineffective.
