The Step 6: Exit option (from the main menu) allows you
to exit the utility.

esolving Resource Conflicts
The system configuration utility automatically resolves
resource conflicts between two EISA expansion cards. It
is extremely unusual for the system configuration utility
to fail in resolving a resource conflict between two EISA
expansion cards. If the system configuration utility fails
to resolve the conflict, see Chapter 11, “Getting Help,” in
the Installation and Troubleshooting Guide for informa-
tion on obtaining technical assistance.
However, resource conflicts between ISA expansion
cards are routine. If the utility cannot resolve the conflict,
you can have a technician remove the card, remove the
card(s) with which it is in conflict, or change the
resources on one or more cards.
D
isabling a Forgotten Password
If you forget your user or administrative password, you
cannot operate your system or change settings in the sys-
tem setup program, respectively, until a trained service
technician opens the computer chassis, changes the pass-
word dual in-line package (DIP) switch setting to disable
the passwords, and erases the existing passwords. This
procedure is described in “Disabling a Forgotten Pass-
word” in Appendix C of the Installation and
Troubleshooting Guide.
