The Security menu allows you to set up the data security
features of your notebook to fit your operating needs and
to view the current data security configuration. Follow
the instructions for Navigating Through the Setup Utility
to make any changes.
The following tables show the names of the menu fields
for the Security menu and its submenus, all the options
for each field, the default settings and a description of the
field's function and any special information needed to
help understand the field's use. The default condition is
no passwords required and no write protection.

If you set a password, write it down and
keep it in a safe place. If you forget the
