The usual approach is to locate the CMOS pins (again manually) and connect them with a screwdriver unless a jumper covers one. You might discard the jumper or reuse it—there’s a third pin, but it’s inactive. A screwdriver is just a conductive tool with a grip. An older technique involved removing the battery and leaving the board off; now it’s simply a switch. This also resets your BIOS to its default settings. Edited October 27, 2022 by Bombastinator

I've already reset it three times, but nothing changed. It seems like I might have to take out the entire battery, which will be tough.

Could it be something else? Does the CPU remain covered by its warranty?

I checked and confirmed I arrived around July, so it should still be valid.

If things turn up the heat, you might be able to start fresh.

this device includes a pre-installed BIOS that occasionally causes issues with the i5-12th generation processor

You can simply adjust your bio settings in your account preferences or profile section to ensure it reflects your current information.

Yes, you might need a lower generation CPU depending on your requirements.
