BIOS Utilities

Security Menu 5 - 11

Set User Password (Security Menu)

You can set a password for user mode access to the PhoenixBIOS Setup Utility.

This will not affect access to the computer OS, (only the Setup utility) unless you

choose to set a Password on Boot (see below). Many menu items in the PhoenixBI-

OS Setup Utility cannot be modified in user mode. You can only set the user pass-

word after you have set the supervisor password.

Password on boot: (Security Menu)

Specify whether or not a password should be entered to boot the computer (you may

only set a password on boot if a supervisor password is enabled). If “Enabled”

is selected, only users who enter a correct password can boot the system (see the

warning in the sidebar). The default setting is “Disabled”.

Note: To clear existing passwords press Enter and type the existing password, then

press Enter for the new password (without typing any password entry) and Enter

again to confirm the password clearance.

dor and you may lose all

of the information on
