Chapter 7
Setup and Password Security
This chapter explains how to use TSETUP utilities to configure your
computer for operation in a MS-DOS environment and how to set security
passwords.
When you configure the computer with TSETUP, the computer stores your
selected values in memory that is backed up by the internal Real Time
Clock (RTC) battery.
If the RTC battery fully discharges, configuration data is lost. A checksum
error is displayed when you start the computer and the system
configuration returns to default values. To charge the RTC battery,
connect the AC adaptor and turn on the computer’s power. The RTC
battery does not charge when the computer is turned off.
TSETUP
TSETUP is an MS-DOS-based program that provides similar functions to
Hardware Setup and Power Saver Utility. Settings for the HDD Mode, LCD
Display Stretch explained in this chapter, cannot be made in Hardware Setup.
The SYSTEM SETUP screen is displayed when you execute the file
TSETUP.EXE, which is stored in the Windows subdirectory on your hard disk.
If the supervisor password is set and you log onto the computer with the
user password, you cannot access the TSETUP program.
