Using passwords

Most security features use passwords. Whenever you set a password, write down the password and store it in a secure location away from the computer. Note the following password considerations:

●Setup and power-on passwords are set in Computer Setup and are managed by the system BIOS.

●Windows passwords are set only in the Windows operating system.

●If you forget the setup password set in Computer Setup, you will not be able to access the utility.

●If you have the stringent security feature enabled in Computer Setup and you forget the setup password or the power-on password, the computer is inaccessible and can no longer be used.

●If you forget both the power-on password and the setup password set in Computer Setup, you cannot turn on the computer.

You can use the same password for a Computer Setup feature and for a Windows security feature. You can also use the same password for more than one Computer Setup feature.

Use the following tips for creating and saving passwords:

●When creating passwords, follow requirements set by the program.

●Write down your passwords and store them in a secure place away from the computer.

●Do not store passwords in a file on the computer.

The following tables list commonly used passwords and describe their functions.
