Starting the computer by password
If you have already registered a password, there is one way to start the

Enter the password manually.
The password is necessary only if the computer was shut down in boot
mode, not in Hibernation or Sleep mode.
To enter a password manually, follow the steps as detailed below:
1.
Turn on the power as described in Chapter 1, Getting Started . The
following message will appear in the screen:
Enter Password [ ]
At this point, the hotkeys do not work. They will function after you enter the
password.
2. Enter the Password.
3. Press ENTER.
If you enter the password incorrectly three times in a row, the computer
shuts off. In this case, you must turn the computer back on to retry
password entry.
