BIOS SETUP

3.13 Supervisor Password

This option allows you to set a password to prevent others from changing the BIOS settings of your system.

The password prevents any unauthorized use of your computer. If you set a password, the system prompts for the correct password before you boot or access “Setup”.

To set a password:

1.At the prompt, type your password. Your password can be up to 8 alpha-numeric characters. When you type the characters, they appear as asterisks (*) on the password screen box.

2.After typing the password, press [Enter] key.

3.At the next prompt, re-type your password and press [Enter] key again to confirm the new password. After the password entry, the screen automatically reverts to the main screen.

To disable the password, press [Enter] key when prompted to enter the password. The screen displays a message confirming that the password has been disabled.

Forget the password?

If you forget the password, you can clear it by erasing the CMOS Real Time Clock (RTC) RAM with the jumper 1 (CMOS_CLR). To erase the RTC RAM:

1.Unplug your computer.

2.Set the JP1 to “CMOS_CLR” for about 10 seconds, and then return to the default setting.

3.Turn on your computer.

4.Hold down [Delete] key during the POST process and enter BIOS setup to re-configure BIOS settings.
