Chapter 2 WINBIOS Setup

Setting a Password
The password check option is enabled in Advanced Setup by choosing
either Always the password prompt appears every time the system is
powered on or Setup the password prompt appears only when
WINBIOS Setup is executed. The password is encrypted and stored in
NVRAM.
As shown on the above screen, you are prompted for a 1 – 6 character
password. You can either type the password on the keyboard or select
each letter of the password, one at a time, using the mouse. The
password does not appear on the screen when typed. Make sure you
write it down. If you forget it, you must drain NVRAM and reconfigure.
If You Do Not Want to Use a Password
Just press <Enter> when the password prompt appears.
