AMIBIOS Password Support
WinBIOS Setup has an optional password feature. The system can be
configured so that all users must enter a password every time the system
boots or when WinBIOS Setup is executed.
Setting a Password
The password check option is enabled in Advanced Setup (see page 155)
by choosing either
Always (the password prompt appears every time the
system is powered on) or Setup (the password prompt appears only when
WinBIOS is run). The password is stored in CMOS RAM.
The system asks for a password.
Enter a 1 – 6 character password. The password does not appear on the
screen when typed. Make sure you write it down. If you forget it, you
must drain CMOS RAM and reconfigure the system.
If You Do Not Want to Use a Password
Just press <Enter> when the password prompt appears.
