Chapter 2. Using Your Computer

ƒHard disk drive (HDD) passwords

Once an HDD password is set, you need to enter it to get access to the hard disk. You can set the HDD password through Set Hard Disk User Password in the InsydeH20 Setup Utility.

￿Note:

If you set passwords through the InsydeH20 Setup Utility and put your computer into sleep mode by pressing Fn + F1, the following describes the behavior of the computer when you bring it out of sleep mode:

ƒYou are prompted to enter the Windows log-on password rather than the User password to resume operation.

ƒIf an HDD password is assigned to any hard disk drive, the hard disk drive is unlocked automatically when you resume operation.

To set a Supervisor Password:

Only a system administrator will be able to perform this procedure.

1Turn on your computer. Press F2, while the initial screen is displayed. The InsydeH20 Setup Utility screen opens.

2Select Security, using the cursor directional keys.

3Select Set Supervisor Password, and press the Enter key. The Set Supervisor Password window opens.

4Choose your Supervisor password, which can be from two to eight alphanumeric characters in any combination. Type it in the Enter New Password field.
