To set up password protection
You can protect your computer from access by another user when you set up password
protection, which is available either through Windows (software) or through the BIOS
Setup utility (hardware). Both provide protection when the computer is rebooted: a user
must then enter the password. However, the BIOS password protection does not ask for a
password when your computer resumes after standby (save to RAM) or hibernation (save
to disk), while Windows 98 does provide that security.
To set up password protection through Windows 98:
1. Select Start, Settings, Control Panel, Passwords.
2. Select Change Passwords tab.
3. Click Change Windows Password.
4. Enter your old Windows 98 password, if you had one; if not, leave the first field
blank.
5. Enter your new password twice.
6. Click OK and Close.
To activate password protection when your computer resumes from standby or
hibernation:
1. Check that you have set up a Windows 98 password, as described above.
2. Select Start, Settings, Control Panel, Power Management.
3. Select Advanced tab.
4. Check "Prompt for password when computer goes off standby."
5. Click OK.
To set up password protection through Windows ME
1. Click Start, Settings, Control Panel.
2. Double-click Passwords. (If you do not see the Passwords control panel, click on the
View all Control Panels option.)
