It is documented somewhere, that if the machine is locked, you can not zap
PRAM. It it is unlocked, you can zap some of the PRAM, and if it is service
mode, you can zap most/all. So notice the key on the front.
Also, when you look at the logic board, near the top left corner, there is
a small push-button to reset CUDA as well. On Macs it is better than
cmd-opt-P-R, but not completely as good as the battery.
