Using a Power-on Password
If you set a power-on password when you ran the Setup program,
you must enter it every time you turn on or reset the computer.
Follow these steps to use your password:
1.
If you do not have a hard disk, insert your Startup diskette
in drive A.
2.
Turn on or reset the computer. The screen displays a key
prompt:
3.
At the key prompt, type your power-on password. The key
turns when you type a character, but the screen does not
display the characters you type. Then press
Enter.
After you type the password correctly and press
Enter,
a happy
face character appears. Then the computer loads MS-DOS and
displays the MS-DOS command prompt. (If you installed the
Shell program when you installed MS-DOS, you see the Shell
Start Programs menu instead of the command prompt.)
Note
If you turned
on network server mode when you ran the
Setup program,
you need to use
a
different
procedure to enter
your password. See “Using Your
Computer as a Network
Server” in Chapter 4.
You have three chances to enter the correct password. If you do
not enter the correct password at the key prompt, another key
prompt appears. If you do not enter the correct password at the
third key prompt, the screen displays a zero, the keyboard locks
up, and you cannot use the computer. Reset the computer and
try to enter the correct password again. (See “Resetting the
Computer,” above, for instructions.)
