Pull the power out and take the side of the case off and look for the battery, the little round battery.
Somewhere near that battery will be a three-pin jumper which is often marked as CLRCMOS or CLR CMOS or something similiar to that. Move said jumper across so it covers the middle one and the one that wasn't previously covered. Leave for a few seconds and move it back. Now power up the computer, it should come on and claim either that the CMOS battery is low, CMOS data is invalid or the Date/Time is not set or it should just complain. Go into Setup, reset the date and time and reset the other options as you see fit.
