Using Passwords
Supervisor Password
The supervisor password helps you protect classified information. A
supervisor password:
Secures the system information stored in Easy-Setup.
Prohibits modification to the hardware.
Stops the computer after a POST error to restrict access to the
system information.
Note:
The supervisor password has priority
over the power-on password. You
can start the computer with the
supervisor password even if you do
not know the power-on password.
Overrides the power-on password. (The supervisor password
has priority over the power-on password.)
If a supervisor password is set, you are prompted with a power-on
icon (
) to enter the supervisor password when entering the
Easy-Setup program and when a POST error occurs. You can start
all normal operations for the computer except Easy-Setup without
the supervisor password.
Using Both Supervisor and Hard Disk Passwords
When a supervisor password is set, the same password is
automatically set for the hard disk password.
When you change or remove the supervisor password, the hard
disk password also is changed or removed.
