3.4.7 Before You Partition or Format the Current Bootable Disk
Ensure that MBR Security is disabled before you change partitioning or formatting of the current
bootable disk. Some disk utilities, such as FDISK and FORMAT, attempt to update the MBR. If
MBR Security is enabled when you change partitioning or formatting of the disk, you may
receive error messages from the disk utility or a warning from MBR Security the next time the
computer is turned on or restarted. To disable MBR Security, complete the following steps:
1. Turn on or restart the computer. If you are in Windows, click Start > Shut Down > Restart.
2. As soon as the computer is turned on, press and hold the F10 key until you enter Computer
Setup. Press
Enter to bypass the title screen, if necessary.
✎
If you do not press the F10 key at the appropriate time, you must restart the computer and press
and hold the
F10 key again to access the utility.
If you are using a PS/2 keyboard, you may see a Keyboard Error message—disregard it.
3. Select Security > Master Boot Record Security > Disabled.
4. Before exiting, click File > Save Changes and Exit.
3.4.8 Cable Lock Provision
The rear panel of the computer accommodates a cable lock so that the computer can be
physically secured to a work area.
For illustrated instructions, please see the Removal and Replacement Chapter for the specific
chassis.
3.4.9 Fingerprint Identification Technology
Eliminating the need to enter user passwords, HP Fingerprint Identification Technology tightens
network security, simplifies the login process, and reduces the costs associated with managing
corporate networks. Affordably priced, it is not just for high-tech, high-security organizations
anymore.
✎
Support for Fingerprint Identification Technology varies by model.
