3.13 Set Password
This option allows you to set a password to prevent others from changing the BIOS setting of
your system.
The password prevents any unauthorized use of your computer. If you set a password, the
system prompts for the correct password before you boot or access “Setup”.
To set a password:
1. At the prompt, type your password. Your password can be up to 8 alpha-numeric
characters. When you type the characters, they appear as asterisks on the password
screen box.
2. After typing the password, press the [Enter] key.
3. At the next prompt, re-type your password and press the [Enter] key again to confirm the
new password. After password entry, the screen automatically reverts to the main
screen.
To disable the password, press the [Enter] key when prompted to enter the password. The
screen displays a message confirming that the password has been disabled.
