The BIOS Setup program allows you to specify two separate passwords:

Set Supervisor/User Password Supervisor Password

When a system password is set and the Password Check item in Advanced BIOS Features is set to Setup, you must enter the supervisor password for entering BIOS Setup and making BIOS changes.

When the Password Check item is set to System, you must enter the supervisor password (or user password) at system startup and when entering BIOS Setup.

 Supervisor Password User Password

When the Password Check item is set to System, you must enter the supervisor password (or user password) at system startup to continue system boot. In BIOS Setup, you must enter the supervisor password if you wish to make changes to BIOS settings. The user password only allows you to view the BIOS settings but not to make changes.

To clear the password, press <Enter> on the password item and when requested for the password, press <Enter> again. The message "PASSWORD DISABLED" will appear, indicating the password has been cancelled.
