Set Privileged-Access Password:

The privileged-access password protects

against the unauthorized

starting of the system programs.

To set the privileged-access password, you must first change a jumper on your computer's system board. See “Front View without Covers” on page 1-3 to locate and change the password-enabling jumper.

If the password-enabling jumper has been changed, select Set privileged-access password to set and verify the privileged-access password.

Attention: Once the password-enabling jumper has been changed and the privileged-access password has been set, great care must be taken to preserve the privileged-access Ifpasswyourd.set the privileged-access

password and later misplace it, your system must be returned for service.

In order to prevent loss of system use, please record the privileged-acce password immediately whenever it is changed.

Attention:

If no user-defined

boot-list exists, and the privileged-access

password

 

has

been

enabled,

you

are asked for the privileged-access password

at

 

startup every

time

you

boot up

your system.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Moving

the

password-enabling jumper back

to the defaultnot dipositionable

does

 

 

 

or erase

the privileged-access password. Removing the jumper or moving

the

 

jumper back to the default

position only prohibits changing or

disabling

this

pass

with

the

System Management Services. Removing the

battery

does

not

affect the

state of

the privileged-access password at all.

 

 

 

 

 

 

If

you

previously

had

set

a privileged-access

password

and

want

to

remove

it,
