being displayed.

then select Boot from the categories listed on the left of the screen.
Setting passwords
To set a password on boot, activate the BIOS utility, then select
Security from the categories listed on the left of the screen.

feature. Once you have entered a password for this feature, you may
then enable/disable Password on Boot.
