confirmation, and press <Enter> again.
The password can be up to 20 alphanumeric characters.
Special characters are not allowed.

The supervisor password has been set.
The supervisor password is required to turn the computer on
or to enter the BIOS Setup.
For some models, if the password entered message appears
in the Setup Notice window, the settings are not complete
until the <Enter> key is pressed.
Setting a User Password
Using the User Password, you can turn the computer on but you
cannot change the major settings of the BIOS Setup because you
cannot enter the BIOS Setup.
This helps prevent unauthorized access to the major settings in
the BIOS Setup menu.
Before configuring a user password, a supervisor password must
have been configured. Deactivating the supervisor password also
deactivates the user password.
In the Set User Password select and complete the procedures
from Step 3 of Setting a Supervisor Password.
Setting Up a Boot Password
To setup a boot password, the administrator password (Set
Supervisor Password) should be set in advance.
Set the Password On Boot item to Enabled.
Once a boot password is set, you have to enter a password to boot
up the computer.
Be sure to remember the password for later use.
