Using Setup and Power Management 3-7
To set the date, enter the current day, month, and year in
mo/day/year format.
The drive parameters let you check and change settings for
your drives, including the internal hard drive, diskette drive,
or the CD-ROM reader.
Boot Options lets you specify the boot sequence that the
system follows. For example, you specify if the system
looks only to C: drive for start up information, or if it looks
to the diskette drive first. Boot options also let you specify
whether the setup prompt to press F2 appears. You can also
have the system stop during POST if an error occurs.
Peripherals
The Peripherals screen displays the connection location
between the system and the Input/Output (I/O) ports.
Security
Your NEC Versa supports a password for system security
on several levels. Using the Security screen, you can require
that a password be entered
to use Setup
at each startup or boot
each time the system resumes from Suspend mode.
You are not prompted to enter a password until you set an
initial password. Your system is not protected until you set
a password.
Once you set a password, you must enter it before you can
enter Setup; this feature allows only an authorized user to
change system parameters. In addition, you can choose to
require the password be entered each time you start the
system and each time the system resumes from Suspend
mode.
