    Hey I had this FJ270 Viao for almost 2 years now and a big problem. The bios won't tell me what model number it is and in system infomation it tells me that it is reserved. What I want to do is, reset the bios, I took apart the whole thing, The keyboard and the metal case under it and i don't see it anywhere, do you guys have any idea where it could be
