Important information for mouse users
This information applies only to computers with a mouse
connected to the mouse port; a serial mouse is not affected
by the password prompt Off mode.
The password prompt Off mode prevents the computer
from detecting that a mouse is attached. In this mode, the
mouse device driver does not load automatically. Instead,
the operating system displays an error message informing
you that the mouse connector is disabled.
Once the operating system starts in password prompt Off
mode, the computer will remain locked until you type your
password. However, the mouse connected to the mouse
port remains locked.
Dual
In the password prompt Dual mode, the startup behavior of the
computer depends on whether the computer is started from the
computer power switch or by an unattended method, such as
remotely over a LAN.
If you start your computer using the power switch, you will be
prompted for the password.
If the computer is started by an unattended method, the
computer operates the same as it does in password prompt Off
mode.
The password does not appear on the screen as you type it. If you type the
wrong password, you receive a screen message telling you so. If you type
the wrong password three times, you must turn off the computer and start
again. When you type the correct password, the computer begins normal
operation.
Setting, changing, and deleting a power-on password
A power-on password can be any combination of up to seven characters
(A–Z, a–z, and 0–9).
Attention
Keep a record of your power-on password in a secure place. If you lose
or forget your password, you cannot change or delete it without
removing the computer cover and moving a jumper on the system
board. See “Erasing a lost or forgotten password” on page 49 for more
information.
