SecurityEasy
There are two ways to prevent unauthorized entry or use of the system:
System Password and SecurityEasy.
System Password
Set system password in the ” PASSWORD SETTING” section of the BIOS, and set the
“Password Setting” to
System
in the “BIOS FEATURES SETUP” section. You will be prompted
for the password every time the system boots or any time you try to enter BIOS Setup. If the
“Password Setting” is set as
Setup
, you will be prompted for the password only when
entering BIOS Setup.
SecurityEasy
The P6I440BX/ B1S provides additional SecurityEasy function to protect the system from
unauthorized entry or use. There are two ways to enter the lock status.
Push once the button connected to the two-pin header SLEEP after enabling the lock
function in BIOS Setup. If the lock function is disabled, this button is used as SLEEP
button.
‘Keyboard Inactive Timer’ is counted to the preset value-from 1 minute to 1 hour set in
the BIOS Setup.
In the lock status, the power switch and reset buttons are unresponsive, PS/2 mouse is
locked, and the keyboard is locked except for the SecurityEasy password entering. You
can preset the Video as blank in the lock status. The only way to exit the lock status is to
enter SecurityEasy password using the keyboard. This means if you set the lock function
as enabled, you must also set the SecurityEasy password.
Please read the notes below thoroughly.
Note 1
: The green function and the lock function can not be enabled at the same time.
Note 2
: If lock function is enabled, the SecurityEasy password should be set, no more
than six characters.
Note 3
: When entering the SecurityEasy password to exit the lock status, use the
<Enter> key located on the alphabetic pad and not the <Enter> key located on the
numeric pad.
Note 4:
If there is no SLEEP button on your case, your system still can enter lock status
through our lock application. Refer to Appendix A (item 4) for details.
Note 5
: See also chapter 4 ‘BIOS Description’.
