CHANGE SUPERVISOR/USER PASSWORD
Set a password that is used to protect your system and Setup Utility. Supervisor Pass-
word has higher priority than User Password. Once you setup the password, the system
will ask you to enter the password every time you enter the BIOS SETUP. If you enter the
BIOS SETUP with the Supervisor Password, you can access every setup option on the
main menu. With a User Password, you can only choose three setup options (
Change User
Password, Save Setting and Exit
, and
Exit Without Saving
). To disable these passwords, enter the
BIOS SETUP menu with the Supervisor Password and then press the
Enter
key instead of
entering a new password when the
Enter Password
prompt appears.
AUTO-DETECT HARD DISK
This option detects the parameters of an IDE hard disk drive (HDD sector, cylinder,
head, etc.) automatically and will put the parameters into the Standard CMOS Setup
screen. Up to 4 IDE drives can be detected and the parameters will be listed in the
box. Press
Y
if you accept these parameters. Press
N
to skip to the next IDE drive.
Note:
If your IDE HDD was formatted in a previous system, incorrect parameters may
be detected. In this case, you need to enter the correct parameters manually or low-level
format the disk.
