Supervisor Password

User Password

AMIBIOS provides both Supervisor and User password functions. If you use both passwords, the Supervisor password must be set first. The sys- tem can be configured so that all users must enter a password every time the system boots or when AMIBIOS Setup is executed, using either or both the Supervisor password or User password. The Supervisor and User passwords activate two different levels of password security. If you select password support, you are prompted for a 1 – 6 character password. Type the password on the keyboard. The password does not appear on the screen when typed. Make sure you write it down. If you forget it, you must clear CMOS and reconfigure. Remember your Password! Keep a record of the new password when the password is changed. If you forget the password, you must erase the system configuration information in CMOS.
