Once you have set the power-on password, you cannot start your computer without entering the password. Be sure not to forget the password. Write
down your password and keep it safe and private from other people.
If you forget the power-on password and need assistance to reset it, a password reset fee will be charged, and your computer may need to be sent in
for service to reset the password.
