The ASUS book size barebone system supports Windows
®
2000/XP
operating systems (OS). Always install the latest OS version and
corresponding updates so you can maximize the features of your book
size barebone system.
Because motherboard settings and hardware options vary, use the
setup procedures presented in this chapter for general reference only.
Refer to your OS documentation for detailed information.
Hard disk drive security port (optional)
The system features a hard disk drive security port that allows you to lock
the hard disk drive and prevent unauthorize access to your hard disk drive
data. Using the supplied security keys, you may lock the HDD following
the instructions in this section.
Using the security port and keys
To use the security port and keys:
1. Enable the XWALL jumper on the system motherboard following the
instructions on page 64.
2. Insert the security key to the security port.
3. Turn on the system.
4. Format or reformat the hard disk drive
following the documentation that comes with
the drive, then install an operating system.
Make sure the HDD you intend to secure is connected to the
PRI_XWIDE connector.
5. Restart your computer.
The system prevents HDD bootup when you remove the security key
before restarting. Insert the key to the security port to boot the system
normally.
• Two security keys are included in the system package if your
system comes with a security port.
• Refer to page 13 for the location of the security port.
Do not lose the security keys! You need to reformat the hard disk drive
and lose all your data when you lose the security keys. It is
recommended that you back up all your HDD data when you lose one
of the keys.
