    Usually in laptops there is no jumper to reset CMOS like on desktops.
    A laptop CMOS battery may look like this:

    or this:

    If you want to reset the CMOS, unplug or take out the battery and wait 10-25 minutes before putting it back in.
    Also, what errors have you encountered that make you think resetting CMOS is necessary?
    In Soviet Russia, iPhone touch you. Computer shut you down. Mouse click you. Floppy inserts you. Yahoo answers you. Man in TV watches you. Computer game addicts you. Guitar shreds you. Motherboard fries you. The laughter in manslaughter is put back in.

      thanks for the reply.
      My problem was already solved!
      cheers!
      Actually I'm troubleshooting a netbook of my friend that won't boot(no display at all) that's why I think reseting the bios will solve it.
      I found the rtc below/ other side of the board, . So I just unplug the rtc and short circuit the two pin.
      thanks again!

      There's no point in 'short-circuiting' the pins. There's no charge without a power source...

        CMOS circuits can hold a charge for a very long time without a power source.  That's why they have the shorting pins.
