3-12 Password Setting
You can set either supervisor or user password, or both of them. The differences
are:
Supervisor password:
Can enter and change the options of the setup menus.
User password: Can only enter but do not have the right to change the options
of the setup menus. When you select this function, the
following message will appear at the center of the screen to
assist you in creating a password.
ENTER PASSWORD:
Type the password, up to eight characters in length, and press <Enter>. The
password typed now will clear any previously entered password from CMOS memory.
You will be asked to confirm the password. Type the password again and press
<Enter>. You may also press <Esc> to abort the selection and not enter a password.
To disable a password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to enter the
password. A message will confirm that the password will be disabled. Once the
password is disabled, the system will boot and you can enter Setup freely.
PASSWORD DISABLED.
When a password has been enabled, you will be prompted to enter it every time you
try to enter Setup. This prevents an unauthorized person from changing any part of
your system configuration.
Additionally, when a password is enabled, you can also require the BIOS to request a
password every time your system is rebooted. This would prevent unauthorized use
of your computer.
You determine when the password is required within the BIOS Features Setup Menu
and its Security option. If the Security option is set to “System”, the password will be
required both at boot and at entry to Setup. If set
to “Setup”, prompting only occurs
when trying to enter Setup.
