You should disable the existing password if you want to be able to set a new password later without having to reset a jumper again. See “Disabling an existing password,” below, for instructions.

If you disable the password function, you cannot set a new password unless you perform the steps to disable the existing password at that time. If you do not want to use a password anymore, follow the instructions under “Disabling the password function” below.

Disabling an existing password

If you do not know your power-on password and do not want to set a new one, follow these steps to disable the existing password:

1.Turn off the computer and follow the instructions under “Changing the Jumper Settings” in Chapter 5 to disable the password function by setting jumper J1 to position B.

2.Insert the Reference diskette in drive A and turn on the computer. You do not see the key prompt.

3.When the Operation Menu appears, highlight Setup and press Enter. Then see “Setting the Power-on Password” in Chapter 2 and follow the instructions as if you are going to enter a new password. However, when you see the password prompt, press Enter immediately. This clears out the existing password.

Make sure you save the password setting and that you highlight ** EXIT AND SAVE ** when you leave the Setup program.

4.Remove the Reference diskette, turn off the computer, and follow the instructions under “Changing the Jumper Settings” in Chapter 5 to enable the password function by setting jumper J1 to position A.
