This option is for setting a password for entering BIOS Setup. When a password
has been set, a password prompt will be displayed whenever BIOS Setup is run.
This prevents an unauthorized person from changing any part of your system
configuration.
There are two types of passwords you can set. A supervisor password and a user
password. When a supervisor password is used, the BIOS Setup program can be
accessed and the BIOS settings can be changed. When a user password is used,
the BIOS Setup program can be accessed but the BIOS settings cannot be
changed.
To set the password, type the password (up to eight characters in length) and
press <Enter
