A note about passwords
The BIOS Setup program allows you to specify passwords in the Boot menu. These passwords control access to the BIOS during system startup. The BIOS Setup program allows you to specify two different passwords: a Supervisor Password and a User Password. If you did not set a Supervisor Password, anyone can access the BIOS Setup. If you did, the Supervisor Password is required before entering the BIOS Setup and gain full access to the configuration fields.
Forgot the password?
If you forget your password, you can clear it by erasing the CMOS Real Time Clock (RTC) RAM. The RAM data containing the password information is powered by the onboard button cell battery. If you need to erase the CMOS RAM, refer to section “1.11 Switch and Jumpers” for instructions.
Password Check [Setup]Requires users to enter the password before entering the BIOS setup or the operating system. Select [Setup] to require the password before entering the BIOS Setup.
