To Establish Password

press <Enter>.

<Enter>.

Note! Load Optimized Defaults loads the default system values directly from
ROM. If the stored record created by the Setup program should ever
become corrupted (and therefore unusable), these defaults will load
automatically when you turn PCM-9588 system on.
Note! To enable this feature, you must first go to the Advanced BIOS Features
menu, choose the Security Option, and select either Setup or System,
depending on which aspect you want password protected. Setup
requires a password only to enter Setup. System requires the password
either to enter Setup or to boot the system. A password may be at most
8 characters long.
