Menu Item Settings and Descriptions
Set User Password [Enter]
Use this field to set or change the user password. Press
Enter to bring up the dialog box where the password can be
entered and confirmed.
Do not create a user password that is a subset of the
supervisor password. Doing this may cause the system to
only respond to the user password. If this occurs, only user-
level access is allowed until the password is cleared from
the BIOS Setup utility after jumpering the system board (see
Section 4 for jumper settings).
Set Supervisor Password [Enter]
Use this field to set or change the supervisor password.
Press Enter to bring up the dialog box where the password
can be entered and confirmed.
Clear User Password [Enter]
Press Enter to clear the user password when logged on as
Supervisor.
User Setup Access Enabled, Disabled.
When both the User Password and Supervisor Password
are enabled, only the Supervisor Password gives full access
to all Setup fields.
When User Setup Access is set to Enabled, the user has
read-only access to the BIOS Setup utility.
Unattended Start Disabled (default), Enabled.
This field controls the point at which the user password is
required. When set to Disabled, the user is prompted for the
password before the system can boot.
When set to Enabled and a user password is set, the system
can complete a boot and run without prompting the user for
a password (except when booting from a diskette). However,
the keyboard is locked. The user password must be entered
to unlock it.
This field is read-only if no user password is set.
