5.Press <Esc> and a message prompts you to save the changes.

6.Press <Y> to save the changes and exit from the System Setup. The computer reboots.

Disabling a System Password

The system's software security features include a system password and a setup password. The password jumper disables any password(s) currently in use. There are 2–pins for the PSWD jumper.

NOTE: The password jumper is disabled by default.

1.Follow the procedures in Before Working Inside Your Computer.

2.Remove the cover.

3.Identify the PSWD jumper on the system board. For identifying the PSWD jumper on the system board, see the System Board Components.

4.Remove the PSWD jumper from the system board.

NOTE: The existing passwords are not disabled (erased) until the computer boots without the jumper.

5.Install the cover.

NOTE: If you assign a new system and/or setup password with the PSWD jumper installed, the system disables the new password(s) the next time it boots.
