You don't need to access bios to change boot drive just hit escape key a couple of times when you power on and it will give you options for which drive to boot from.

SOURCE: how to remove the bios password of Asus eee pc bios password

On the motherboard, near the battery, you will see one of two things.
You may see three posts with a jumper on them. The jumper would be in the normal mode. You should see, next to one of the end pins writing that states CLR or CMR CMOS. Move the jumper to the that position and wait about 20 seconds. Then move the jumper back to the normal position and you should be good to go.
If there is no set of pins with a jumper, there may be two silver squares on the motherboard (very small) that will say something like CLR or RST. Jumping them with a screwdriver when the computer is disconnected from the power will do the same thing as the jumpers.

If you really don't know the password, the only thing you can do is to reinstall everything. I hope you still have any disks, because you need the same windows version or newer. And everything your brother saved will be gone, without his password.

My nine year old changed my password on my asus eee 1005 computer and F9 dont work.please help it is kind of important to me

Is this your windows Password? Or the BIOS password? If you are talking about the Windows, you can simply press F8 at boot many times until you get to the Windows Advanced Menu. Choose Start Safe Mode and after it boots you might your Account name and the "Administrator" account. Log in as Administrator (usually with No password) and go to Start - Contorl Panel - User Account and click on you account name, and then simply remove password. Do not click on change because it will ask you the old password and you dont know it. If it's the BIOS password please let me know.
