Using a Password

In SETUP, you can define both a Supervisor level password and a User level password. You can also specify whether a password is required when you boot the system. This password can also control access to the diskette drives.

If `you enabled the Password on boot option in SETUP, you must enter the Supervisor or User password every time you turn on or reset the computer. If you entered a password but disabled the Password on boot option, you must enter the password when you start SETUP.

If you set the Diskette Access option to Supervisor, you can access a diskette drive only if you entered a Supervisor password when you started the system. If you entered a User password but the Diskette Access option is set to Supervisor, you see an error message when you cannot access the diskette drive.

When you enter your password, you’ll see the prompt, Enter password:. As you type your password, you see a rectangle for each character you type. When you press Enter, the computer loads the operating system (or starts SETUP).

If you don’t enter the correct password the first time you type it, you can try two more times. If you haven’t entered the correct password on the third try, the computer locks up to prevent unauthorized access. You see the message:
