Password changes using keyboard layout that is also supported

If the password is initially set with one keyboard layout, such as U.S. English (409), and then the user changes the password using a different keyboard layout that is also supported, such as Latin American (080A), the password change will work in HP Drive Encryption, but it will fail in the BIOS if the user uses characters that exist in the latter but not in the former (for example, ē).

NOTE: Administrators can resolve this problem by using the HP ProtectTools Manage Users feature to remove the user from HP ProtectTools, selecting the desired keyboard layout in the operating system, and then running the Security Manager Setup Wizard again for the same user. The BIOS stores the desired keyboard layout, and passwords that can be typed with this keyboard layout will be properly set in the BIOS.

Another potential issue is the use of different keyboard layouts that can all produce the same characters. For example, both the U.S. International keyboard layout (20409) and the Latin American keyboard layout (080A) can produce the character é, although different keystroke sequences might be required. If a password is initially set with the Latin American keyboard layout, then the Latin American keyboard layout is set in the BIOS, even if the password is subsequently changed using the U.S. International keyboard layout.
