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.
