System administration and control
85
Control access to the
system other than
BIOS Setup (set user
password) To control access to the system, set a user password and enable the
Password on Boot option using the BIOS Setup utility.
Once set, passwords can be disabled by deleting the password or by
changing the Password Clear jumper. See “Password Clear jumper” on
page 68.
Boot without keyboard The system can boot with or without a keyboard. During POST and before
the system boots, the BIOS automatically detects and tests the keyboard,
if present, and displays a message. Do not plug in a keyboard while the
system is on.
Specify the boot
sequence The sequence you specify in the BIOS determines the boot order (see
“About the BIOS Setup utility” on page 65). If secure mode is enabled (user
password is set), you are prompted for a password before the system boots
fully. If secure mode is enabled and the Secure Mode Boot option is also
enabled, the system boots fully but requires a password before accepting
any keyboard or mouse input.
