Management Engine BIOS Extension

This section describes the essential steps for using the Intel® Management Engine BIOS

extension (MEBx).

Step 1: A screen prompts the user to press <Ctrl+P> after a single beep during boot-up

process. To get into the Intel® MEBx settings, press <Ctrl+P>.

Step 2: Enter the Intel® current ME password as it requires (Figure 8-2). Enter the

CyberResearch factory ME password: Abab12!@ (the Intel® default password

is admin).

NOTE:

The default Intel® ME password is admin. The password has been

reset to Abab12!@ during a quality control process. After clearing the

CMOS, the ME password bound to Intel® default password (admin).

Use the Intel® default password to enter the Intel® ME BIOS and

change the password (refer to Step 3 below) to be able to configure the

Intel® AMT and ME options.
