System and Setup Password Features

NOTICE:

The password features provide a basic level of security for the data on

your system. If your data requires more security, use additional forms of protection,
such as data encryption programs.

NOTICE:

Anyone can access the data stored on your system if you leave the

system running and unattended without having a system password assigned or if
you leave your system unlocked so that someone can disable the password by
changing a jumper setting.

Your system is shipped to you without the system password feature enabled. If
system security is a concern, operate your system only with system password
protection.
To change or delete an existing password, you must know the password (see
"Deleting or Changing an Existing System Password" on page 59). If you
forget your password, you cannot operate your system or change settings in
the System Setup program until a trained service technician changes the

NMI Button

NOTICE:

Use the NMI button only if directed to do so by

qualified support personnel or by the operating system's
documentation. Pressing this button halts the operating
system and displays a diagnostic screen.

Enables or disables the NMI feature.

AC Power Recovery
