Using the System Setup Program and UEFI Boot Manager
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 that the system has halted and must be shut down manually
with the power button. 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 protect your system from unauthorized
changes.
