Setting a Boot Password

If you set a password, you have to enter the password when you

turn the computer on or enter the BIOS Setup.
By configuring a password, you can restrict system access to

authorized users only and protect data and files saved on the

computer.

The password setting provides the following 2 sub menus.

(Supervisor Password and User Password)
Do not lose or forget your password.

Do not let others know your password.

If you forget the Supervisor Password or HDD Password,

you will need to request assistance from the service center.

In this case, a service fee will be charged.
When you forget the User Password, you can disable

the Supervisor Password, and the User Password is also

automatically disabled.
The screen images and terms may differ from actual

product depending on the computer model and driver

version.
