Security Options
The Security Menu allows you to password-protect system access, a way
of safeguarding information. When passwords are enabled, users must
type the proper password to access the protected part of the system.
Note: 1. It’s easy to forget a password, so we strongly recommend writing down your
passwords and storing them in a secure place.
2. If you type the User password on entering SETUP, you cannot change the
Supervisor Password or Diskette Access settings.
Warning!
If you forget the password, your system will not operate. You will have to completely
clear the CMOS memory and reenter your entire system configuration. Write down your
password and store it in a safe place.
The following security items are available:
• Set Supervisor Password
• Set User Password
• Password on Boot
• Diskette Access
• Fixed disk boot sector
• System Backup Reminder
• Virus Check Reminder
