Possibly
but you'd have to be pretty knowledgeable to do that. I think, though, that clearing CMOS just resets BIOS.

Yup and where else are they going to store passwords to stop people reinstalling windows?
And where else can you change the CD rom as first boot device.

Yes but you say that this presumes the PC looks at the CD rom drive first
If you reset the CMOS the bios is then open wide for you to go in and change that.
