Using passwords for BIOS

Passwords protect your computer from unauthorized access. Setting these
passwords creates several different levels of protection for your computer
and data:

Supervisor Password prevents unauthorized entry into the BIOS utility.
Once set, you must enter this password to gain access to the BIOS utility.

User Password secures your computer against unauthorized use. Combine
the use of this password with password checkpoints on boot-up and
resume from Hibernation for maximum security.

Password on Boot secures your computer against unauthorized use.
Combine the use of this password with password checkpoints on boot-up
and resume from Hibernation for maximum security.

Important! Do not forget your Supervisor Password! If you forget
your password, please get in touch with your dealer or an
authorized service center.

Entering passwords

When a password is set, a password prompt appears in the center of the
display screen.
