A Supervisor Password is needed before you set a user password. If
you set a Supervisor Password, some functions might be restricted
when a user logs on with the User Password.
When entering the character string to register the password, enter
from the keyboard character by character and do not enter as ASCII
code or copy-and-paste the character string. In addition, ensure that
the registered password is correct by outputting the character string to
the password file.
Starting the computer using a password
To enter a password manually, do the following:
1.
Turn on the power as described in the
section.
At this point, the function keys do not work. They will function after you
enter the password.
The password is necessary if the "Power on Password" is enabled in the
dynabook Setup Utility.
2.
Enter the password in the dialog appears in the screen.
3.
Press
ENTER
.
If you enter the password incorrectly three times in a row, or if you do not
enter the password within 1 minute, the computer shuts down. In this case,
some features that can power on the computer automatically (Wake-up on
LAN, Task Scheduler, etc) might not work. You must turn the computer
back on to retry password entry.
