UPDATE: After further review of the support pages and in spending more time on searching for similar issues in other threads, I was able to try again today and finally succeed in doing the reset.
A post response by sgilderd at the end of this thread: Reset forgotten BIOS password - #17 by sgilderd helped me the most.
Instructions followed (Specific to FW13 AMD and a few edits I’ve starred.):
- Plug in the system to AC. *
- Remove the Input Cover.
- Press the chassis open switch in the center [top] of the Mainboard 10 times, you must press it slowly, so press for 2 seconds. Release, wait for the red blink on the Mainboard LEDs *. repeat.
- Press the power button to boot the system
- BIOS settings will be reset to defaults.
