4.14 Supervisor/User Password Setting
The user can set the password for either supervisor or user, or for both of them.
Supervisor password:
for entering and changing the settings of the system
User password:
for just entering the system but does not have the privilege to
change any settings of the system
If this function is enabled, the following message will appear to guide the user to
create a password.
ENTER PASSWORD:
Type the password, up to eight characters in length, and press <Enter>. The
password typed now will clear any previously entered password from CMOS
memory. The user will be asked to re-type the password, and press <Enter>.
Note:
The user may press <Esc> to skip the selection and not to enter a
password.
To disable a password, just press <Enter> when prompted to enter the password.
Once the password is disabled, the system will boot and the user can enter Setup
freely.
PASSWORD DISABLED:
When a password has been set, the user will be prompted to enter it every time
when entering Setup. This prevents an unauthorized user from changing any
part of the system configuration.
Additionally, when a password is set, the user can also require the BIOS to
request a password every time the system starts. This would prevent any
unauthorized use of the computer.
The user determines when the password is required within the BIOS Features
Setup Menu and its security option (see Section 3). If the security option is set
to “password”, then it will be required both at boot and at entry to Setup. If it is
set to “Setup”, the password is needed only when trying to enter Setup.
