Securing your computer
Security features include hardware and software locks — a security notch and
password.
Security notch
A security notch located on the rear panel of the computer lets you connect a
Kensington-compatible computer security lock.
Wrap a computer security lock cable around an immovable object such as a table
or locked drawer handle. Insert the lock into the notch and turn the key to secure
the lock. Some keyless models are also available.
Passwords
Passwords protect your computer from unauthorized access. When set, no one can
access the computer without entering the correct password.
There are three types of passwords you can set:
•
Supervisor Password secures your computer against unauthorized entry to
and use of the BIOS Utility.
• User Password secures your computer against unauthorized use.
• Hard Disk Password protects your data by preventing unauthorized access to
your hard disk.
See “BIOS Utility” on page 69 for details.
Important : Do not forget your Setup and Hard Disk password! If you forget
your password, please get in touch with your dealer or an authorized service
center.
Setting a password
You can set the password using the BIOS Utility. See “Password Option” on page
71.
