You can display personal information, such as your name or
address, every time the computer is turned on and a power-on
password is set.
This can help you when you misplace your
computer.
Because the password is set, your data is secured and
cannot be accessed, but your personal information is displayed and
identifies the owner of the computer.
The personalization feature includes a personalization editor
program to create your own image to be displayed with the text
information you create, and a personalization update utility to store
your personal data in the nonvolatile memory of your system.
A personalized password-prompt screen consists of two parts:
the
personal data area and the background bitmap area.
The
personal data area
1
is the box in the center of the
screen that has a black-and-white bitmap.
The
background bitmap area
2
surrounds the personal data
area.
