as follows:
Select the account to change in [Control Panel] - [User
Accounts] and set the password, then add the check mark
for [Prompt for password when computer resumes from
standby] in [Control Panel] - [Performance and Mainte-
nance] - [Power Options] - [Advanced].
Press the MENU button of the wireless display, then set
the password ( Operating Instructions of the wireless

A problem possibly occurred during startup.

and restart the computer.

message is displayed when you fail to correctly enter the pass-
word. Follow the message’s instructions and set the password
again by using the password reset disk.
If you have not created a password reset disk, after reinstall-
ing, setup Windows and then set the password again.

ity”). This will restore the Setup Utility's settings to their
default values (except the password settings).
