Setting the Date and Time
Your personal computer has an internal clock that
maintains the date and time. A battery keeps the clock
active when you turn off the computer.
To set the date and time:
1. Start the Configuration/Setup Utility program (see
“Using the Configuration/Setup Utility Program” on
page 16).
2. Select Date and Time from the Configuration/Setup
Utility menu.
3. Type the date and time in the appropriate fields.
4. Press Enter.
5. Remember to save the changes when you exit from
the Configuration/Setup Utility program.
Your operating system might also have a function for
setting the date and time. Refer to your operating system
documentation for more information.
Passwords
Password protection is available in several forms. You
can set, change, and delete power-on and administrator
passwords with the Configuration/Setup Utility program.
Other password security, such as passwords that lock the
keyboard, might be available through your operating
system or network. See “Locking the Keyboard” on
page 38.
Power-On Password
You do not need to have a power-on password to use
your personal computer, but a password helps protect the
information you store in it. The power-on password
prevents the computer from being started by
unauthorized people, or it locks the keyboard and mouse
