3-10 Set Supervisor Password & User Password Setting
There are four different variables that control password settings. The first two are
located under the Security Option function in BIOS Features Setup Menu (Figure 3-1).
When the Security Option function is set to
Setup
, a password is required to enter BIOS
and change BIOS settings. When the Security Option function is set to
System
, a
password is required to enter both BIOS and the computer's operating system (for
example Windows 98) found on the boot drive.
The third and fourth variables are user password and supervisor password selected in
BIOS (Figure 3-1). The main purpose of separating user and supervisor is to allow only
the supervisor to have control over the settings in BIOS. The user, on the other hand, is
only allowed to access the computer's operating system and change the user password in
BIOS.
When there is no supervisor password set, the user password controls access to
all BIOS settings.

3-12 Exit Without Saving
Selecting this option and pressing Y followed by the [
Enter
] key lets you exit the Setup
program without recording any new values or changing old ones.
