Either reboot your system now for your password protection to take effect or continue working.
NOTE:
Password protection does not take effect until you reboot the system.
Using Your System Password to Secure Your System
NOTE:
If you have assigned a setup password (see "Using the Setup Password" on page 38), the system accepts
your setup password as an alternate system password.
When the
Password Status
option is set to
Unlocked
, you have the option to leave the password security
enabled or to disable the password security.
To leave the password security enabled:
1
Turn on or reboot your system by pressing <Ctrl><Alt><Del>.
2
Type your password and press <Enter>.
To disable the password security:
1
Turn on or reboot your system by pressing <Ctrl><Alt><Del>.
2
Type your password and press <Ctrl><Enter>.
When the
Password Status
option is set to
Locked,
whenever
you turn on your system or reboot your
system by pressing <Ctrl><Alt><Del>, type your password and press <Enter> at the prompt.
After you type the correct system password and press <Enter>, your system operates as usual.
If an incorrect system password is entered, the system displays a message and prompts you to re-enter
your password. You have three attempts to enter the correct password. After the third unsuccessful
attempt, the system displays an error message showing the number of unsuccessful attempts and that
the system has halted and will shut down. This message can alert you to an unauthorized person
attempting to use your system.
Even after you shut down and restart the system, the error message continues to be displayed until the
correct password is entered.
NOTE:
You can use the
Password Status
option in conjunction with the
System Password
and
Setup Password
options to further protect your system from unauthorized changes.

When prompted, press <Ctrl><Enter> to disable the existing system password.
If you are asked to enter your setup password, contact your network administrator.
2
Enter the System Setup program by pressing <F2> during POST.

Select the
System Security
screen field to verify that the
Password Status
option is set to
Unlocked
