It's as easy as unplugging the machine remove the battery take off the keyboard remove the CMOS battery hold power button for a minute or so leave be for 15-20 minutes. Plug in and turn on (with battery and CMOS battery out) to make sure BIOS has reset if it has power off, put back together and move on. If not unplug hold power button for a couple of minutes wait another half-hour should be good.

Here is a video tutorial to do that as well please click here

Thanks
