The password-setting feature helps to prevent your computer from being used
by others. Once you set a password, a prompt appears on the screen each
time you turn on the computer. You must enter your password at the
prompt. You will not be able to use the computer unless you type the
correct password. You can set the following passwords on your
computer:
- The power-on password protects your computer from being used by
unauthorized persons.
- The hard disk password protects the data on your hard disk from
being accessed by unauthorized persons.
- The supervisor password protects the system information stored
in the BIOS Setup Utility so that without knowing the password, nobody can
change the configuration of the computer.
To use the password, refer to the User's Reference.
