HP and Windows Password Guidelines
HP and Windows passwords are not interchangeable. You must
use an HP password at an HP password prompt and a Windows
password at a Windows password prompt. For example:
■
If a power-on password is set, the power-on password (not a
Windows password) must be entered when the notebook
starts up or resumes from Hibernation.
■
If you set Windows to prompt for a password before
resuming from Standby, a Windows password (not a
power-on password) must be entered to resume from
Standby.
Windows passwords
Administrator password
Used to log on to the notebook as the
Windows Administrator after Windows
has been configured to prompt for a
password at startup.
User password
Used to log on to the notebook as a
user after Windows has been
configured to prompt for a password at
startup.
