please please please help help help ASAP PLEASE HELP

Hello everyone, I was reading this forum and I have a tx2525nr and I gotta say I love the thing, never had any problems till now which I was hoping someone could help me with, I made a human boo boo. I have alot of friends that come and go so I set a password for right when it starts up. Well I have had one of those days and my pass wouldnt work and then the thing decides to lockup. Well I didnt realize that I had hit the CAPS LOCK button and thats why my pass wasnt working. So I shut it down thinking that I'll try again and all it would do is blink the LED light 3 or 4 times and does nothing. Is there anyway that this is fixable? Or have I screwed myself for being impatient? Can anyone PLEASE help me!?!?!! PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THERES ANYWAY I COULD FIX THIS LITTLE MISTAKE OF MINE!

Try this>>

  1. Remove power cord
  2. Remove battery
  3. Hold power button in for 20-30 seconds
  4. Reattach power cord only for first attempt  to start up

Good luck!
