Securing the Notebook
Startup Password
You can protect your notebook against unauthorized use with a
switching on password. Then, an invitation to enter the password
will appear on the screen when the notebook is switched on.
The password will be set up in
BIOS .
Warning!
Keep your password in a safe place. You will not have
any possibility of deleting your password if you forget
it. Contact your Customer Service in that case.
You can also use the security options of Windows XP, in order to
protect your data against unauthorized access.
Using a safety lock
You can prevent theft by using a so called Kensington lock ,
which can be bought at your local retailer.
The cable wraps around an object and the „T“ shaped end inserts
into the Kensington lock port and a key or combination dial is
used to secure the lock in place. Please keep your key at a safety
place.
