Coordinating Passwords
A Setup administrator password and a Windows administrator
password have different functions. A Windows administrator
password cannot be used to access Setup, and a Setup
administrator password cannot provide administrator-level
access to your computer contents.
Setup utility and Windows passwords function independently.
You must use a Setup utility password at a Setup utility password
prompt and a Windows password at a Windows password prompt.
For example:
■ If a Setup utility power-on password is set, the power-on
password (not a Windows password) must be entered when
the computer is turned on, restarted, or restored from
hibernation.
■ If a Windows standby password is set, the Windows standby
password (not a Setup utility power-on password) must be
entered when the computer is resumed from standby or
restored from hibernation.
Choosing a Password
The same password used for a Setup utility password can be used
for another Setup utility password or for a Windows password,
with the following considerations:
■ A Setup utility password can be any combination of up to
8 letters and numbers and is not case sensitive.
■ A Setup utility password must be set and entered with
the same keys. For example, a Setup utility password set
with keyboard number keys will not be recognized if it
is thereafter entered with embedded numeric keypad
number keys.
