When set to “Hot KEY”, system power can be turned on by pressing
keyboard function key,i.e., <Ctrl>+<F1> through <Ctrl>+<F12>.
When set to “Mouse Left/Right”, system power can be turned on by
pressing PS/2 mouse left/right key. This function works with a standard
two-button PS/2 mouse only.
If you make any changes to the onboard FDD controller, serial ports
or parallel port in this setup, save the changes and turn off the system.
After turning the system on again the change will be in effect.
3.13 SUPERVISOR / USER PASSWORD
The “SUPERVISOR/USER PASSWORD” utility sets the pass-
word. The Mainboard is shipped with the password disabled. If
you want to change the password, you must first enter the current
password, then at the prompt enter your new password. The pass-
word is case sensitive and you can use up to 8 alphanumeric char-
acters, press <Enter> after entering the password. At the next
prompt, confirm the new password by typing it and pressing
<Enter> again.
To disable the password, press the <Enter> key instead of enter-
ing a new password when the “Enter Password” dialog box
appears. A message will appear confirming that the password is
disabled.
If you have set both supervisor and user password, only the
supervisor password allows you to enter the BIOS SETUP PRO-
GRAM.
Note:
If you forget your password, the only way to solve this problem is
to discharge the CMOS memory by turning power off and placing
a shunt on the JP9 to short pin 2 and pin 3 for 5 seconds, then put-
ting the shunt back to pin1 and pin2 of JP9.
