HP/Phoenix BIOS Summary
Security
Sub-menus are presented for changing the characteristics and values of the System
Administrator Password, User Password, Hardware Protection and Boot Device Security.
The Security Menu contains the following sub-menus:
• User Password. This password can only be set when an administrator password has
been set. The User Password prevents unauthorized use of the computer.
• Administrator Password. This password prevents unauthorized access to the
computer’s configuration. It can also be used to start the computer.
• Hardware Protection. The following devices can have their accesses unlocked/locked:
Integrated Flexible Disk Controller, Integrated IDE Controller, Integrated Data
Communications Ports.
• Boot Devices Security. Selects whether the computer can be started over the
network. It also selects which devices are to be used for booting up the system. The
option Disabled prevents unauthorized use of a device to start the computer.
Boot Menu
Select the order of the devices from which you want the BIOS to attempt to boot the
operating system. During POST, if the BIOS is unsuccessful at booting from one device, it
will then try the next one on the Boot Device Priority list until an operating system is
found.
The QuickBoot Mode option allows the system to skip certain tests while booting. This
decreases the time needed to boot the system.
Power Menu
This menu allows you to set the standby delay. It also allows the system administrator to
decide whether the mouse is enabled as a means of reactivating the system from Standby.
It is also possible to specify whether the space-bar is enabled as a means of reactivating
the system from Off.
