Securing your computer
Your computer is a valuable investment that you need to take care of. Learn how to
protect and take care of your computer.
Security features include hardware and software locks — a security notch and
passwords.
Using a computer security lock
The notebook comes with a Kensington-compatible security slot for a security lock.
Wrap a computer security lock cable around an immovable object such as a table
or handle of a locked drawer. Insert the lock into the notch and turn the key to
secure the lock. Some keyless models are also available.
Using passwords
Passwords protect your computer from unauthorized access. Setting these
passwords creates several different levels of protection for your computer and data:
•
Supervisor Password prevents unauthorized entry into the BIOS utility. Once
set, you must enter this password to gain access to the BIOS utility. See
.
•
User Password secures your computer against unauthorized use. Combine the
use of this password with password checkpoints on boot-up and resume from
Hibernation for maximum security.
•
Password on Boot secures your computer against unauthorized use. Combine
the use of this password with password checkpoints on boot-up and resume
from Hibernation for maximum security.
Important!
Do not forget your Supervisor Password! If you forget
your password, please get in touch with your dealer or an authorized
service center.
