Configuring password protection in BIOS Setup Utility
Before using the various options for password protection in the
BIOS Setup utility
to increase data security, please observe the following:
Make a note of the passwords and keep them in a safe place. If you forget your
supervisor password you will not be able to access your notebook. Deletion of the
password is not covered by your warranty and a charge will be made for assistance.
Password protection
Your password can be up to 32 characters long and can contain
letters, numbers and special characters.
When using special characters, you must remember that these are dependent
on the country variants of the keyboard used.
If you change the
Password Severity
setting from
Strong
to
Stringent
in the
Security
BIOS Setup Utility menu, the Fujitsu Service Desk can no longer reset the password.
In this case, the system can remain permanently unusable.
Therefore, Fujitsu recommends to generally set up a supervisor password
with the setting
Password Severity
=
Strong
.
Protecting BIOS Setup Utility (supervisor and user password)
If you have opened these operating instructions on the screen, we
recommend that you print them out. You cannot call the instructions onto
the screen while you are setting up the password.
BIOS SetupUtility
The supervisor password and the user password both prevent unauthorised use of the
BIOS Setup
Utility
. With the aid of the supervisor password you can access all of the functions of the
BIOS
Setup Utility
, while the user password will only give you access to some of the functions. You
can only set up a user password if a supervisor password has already been assigned.
Please refer to section "Settings in BIOS Setup Utility", Page 63 for a description
of how to call up and operate the
BIOS-Setup-Utility
.
