Operating Your System With a Setup Password Enabled

If Setup Password is set to Enabled, you must enter the correct setup password before you can modify the

majority of the System Setup options.

When you start the System Setup program, the System Setup screen appears with Setup Password

highlighted, prompting you to type the password.

If you do not enter the correct password in three tries, the system lets you view, but not modify, the System

Setup screen—with the following exceptions:

You can still modify the Date, Time, CPU Speed, Num Lock, and Speaker options.

If System Password is not enabled and is not locked via the Password Status option, you can assign

a system password (however, you cannot disable or change an existing system password).

NOTE: You can use Password Status in conjunction with Setup Password to protect the system

password from unauthorized changes.

Deleting or Changing an Existing Setup Password

To delete or change an existing setup password, perform the following steps:

1. Enter the System Setup program.

2. Highlight Setup Password and press the left- or right-arrow key to delete the existing setup password.

The setting changes to Not Enabled.

3. If you want to assign a new setup password, perform the steps in "Assigning a Setup Password

Disabling a Forgotten Password

If you forget your system or setup password, you cannot operate your system or change settings in the

System Setup program

until you remove the computer cover, change the password jumper setting to disable

the passwords, and erase the existing passwords.

To disable a forgotten password, perform the following steps.

CAUTION: Before you remove the computer cover, see "Safety First—For You and Your

Computer."

1. Remove the computer cover according to the instructions in "Removing and Replacing the Computer

Cover."

2. Remove the jumper plug from the PSWD jumper to disable the password feature.
