Password Setting
This section describes the two access modes that can be set using the
options found on the Supervisor Password and User Password.
Supervisor Password and User Password
The options on the Password screen menu make it possible to restrict
access to the Setup program by enabling you to set passwords for two
different access modes: Supervisor mode and User mode.
In general, Supervisor mode has full access to the Setup options, whereas
User mode has restricted access to the options. Thus by setting separate
Supervisor and User password, a system supervisor can limit who can
change critical Setup values.
Enter Password
Type the password, up to eight characters, and press <Enter>. The
password typed now will clear any previously entered password from
CMOS memory. You will be asked to confirm the password. Type the
password again and press <Enter>. You may also press <Esc> to abort the
selection and not enter a password.
To disable password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to enter
password. A message will confirm the password being disabled. Once the
password is disabled, the system will boot and you can enter Setup freely.
