	card or embedded on the system board.)

System IDs	Allows you to set:
	● Asset tag (18-byte identifier) and ownership tag (80-byte identifier displayed during POST).
		See the Desktop Management Guide on the Documentation and Diagnostics CD for more
		information.
	● Ownership Tag. This tag is a string that is displayed under the POST splash screen that may
		be used to identify the owner of the computer.

DriveLock Security	Allows you to assign or modify a master or user password for hard drives. When this feature is
	enabled, the user is prompted to provide one of the DriveLock passwords during POST. If neither
