I am trying to get into the bios on an elite mb for a friend who has
forgotten his password. Can it be done by shorting the appropriate jumper or
some other way, or is he stuck until he remembers it??

Just pull the power cord and reset the CMOS with the appropriate jumper, or
you can pull the board and take out the battery for 15 mins or so.

not sure if this any good on ecs boards but i have found someboards will
except the password AWARD_SW certainly works on my old gigabyte 5ax and a
friends sis board!
this password also alows you to change the current one without knowing it.

might be usefull
