Best way to achieve this is boot the computer using Hirens boot cd.
See my link for site and explanation.
I have used this method myself on several occasions.
Maybe not for absolute beginners.
Good luck trying.

SOURCE: Optiplex Gx110 Freezing on Bios Post

The only thing I can think of is there should be a jumper pin that on the mother board that resets the cmos. Unplugging the battery does not clear the cmos rom. My guess would be the cmos rom is currupted and unfortunatly you need the rom loaded before you can flash and replace it. My advice is ditch it.

Generally an indication that the Hard Drive isn't detected
Things to check, go to BIOS F2, reset defaults and reboot, see if the HDD is seen. If it is, the battery on the motherboard is likely dead and needs replacement (Watch battery at Walmart, 3 dollars)
If the HDD doesn't detect after resetting the BIOS, then most likely a Hard Drive failure

Try opening the PC and removing the CMOS battery for 30 minutes. This should reset everything and enable you to install XP without needing a password.

My dell optiplex GX110 motherboard problem

I would suggest defaulting the bios, either by way of the cmos jumper, or by entering the bios at boot, selecting "load defaults" from the menu at the bottom of the screen, save and exit. If setting the defaults does not fix the onboard IDE then you have a hardware failure. They make IDE adaptors that plug into a PCI slot, that could get you back into operation, but I'm afraid if the IDE has gone on the mobo, what's next? I would be afraid something else will fail.
Maybe you'll get lucky with the defaults.

Password problem

if you don't care about the information on the hard drive, use a boot cd for your operating system (windows/linux/unix...whatever) to reformat the hard drive and then install it on the newly formated hard drive
