To change your power-on password:
1. Turn on the computer.
2. When the password prompt is displayed, enter your current
password, then enter the new password twice, typing the
appropriate syntax for your computer keyboard between the
passwords. For example, if you have a Belgian keyboard, you
will type the following:
current password=new password=new password
IMPORTANT: Type carefully. For security reasons, the characters
you type do not appear on the screen
The new password takes effect the next time you turn on the
computer, or resume from Suspend, Hibernation, or
QuickLock/QuickBlank.
