Chapter 4 BIOS Setup
User Password: able to enter but no right to change the options of setup menus.
Type the password, up to eight characters in length, and press <Enter>. The pass-
word typed now will clear any previously entered password from CMOS memory. You
will be asked to confirm the password. Type the password again and press <Enter>.
You may also press <Esc> to abort the selection and not enter a password. To dis-
able a password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to enter the password.
A message will confirm the password will be disabled. Once the password is dis-
abled, the system will boot and you can enter Setup freely.
PASSWORD DISABLED.
When a password has been enabled, you will be prompted to enter it every time you
try to enter Setup. This prevents an unauthorized person from changing any part of
your system configuration. Additionally, when a password is enabled, you can also
require the BIOS to request a password every time your system is rebooted. This
would prevent unauthorized use of your computer. You determine when the pass-
word is required within the BIOS Features Setup Menu and its Security option (see
Section 3). If the Security option is set to “System”, the password will be required
both at boot and at entry to Setup. If set to “Setup”, prompting only occurs when try-
ing to enter Setup.
