Alright dude if the method you friend told you does not work and which was a good one, then here is another thing that you can do. Just nearby the battery on the motherboard(most motherboards have it there) you will notice a three pins selector and on it a jumper which occupies two pins. All you have to do is to remove it and then put it on the other two pins and after that just switch on your computer you will notice it will behave abnormally and afterwards just put the pin back to its original place and start your computer once again. Hope it helps you.
