Securing Your Computer
131
If you forget any of your passwords, contact Dell (see "Contacting Dell" on
page 263). For your protection, Dell technical support staff will ask you for
proof of your identity to ensure that only an authorized person can use the
computer.
Using a Primary Password
The primary password allows you to protect the computer from unauthorized
access.
When you first start your computer, you must assign a primary password at
the prompt.
If you do not enter a password within 2 minutes, the computer returns to its
previous operating state.
NOTICE:
If you disable the administrator password, the primary password is also
disabled.
To add or change passwords, access
User Accounts
from the
Control Panel
.
If you have assigned an administrator password, you can use it instead of the
primary password. The computer does not specifically prompt you for the
administrator password.
Using an Administrator Password
The administrator password is designed to give system administrators or
service technicians access to computers for repair or reconfiguration. The
administrators or technicians can assign identical administrator passwords to
groups of computers, allowing you to assign a unique primary password.
To set or change administrator passwords, access
User Accounts
from the
Control Panel.
When you set an administrator password, the
Configure Setup
option
becomes available in system setup. The
Configure Setup
option allows you to
restrict access to system setup in the same way that a primary password
restricts access to the computer.
The administrator password can be used instead of the primary password.
Whenever you are prompted to enter the primary password, you can enter the
administrator password.
NOTICE:
If you disable the administrator password, the primary password is also
disabled.
