5. Configuring the BIOS Security Menu The Notebook PC's advanced system of security allows you to set a password to prevent unauthorized access to system resources, data, and the BIOS Setup Program. This Section covers each parameter of the Security Setup. Selecting Security from the menu bar displays the following menu: System Password: Set Supervisor Password Password on boot: [Enter] [Disabled] Hard Disk Password: Set Supervisor Password [Enter] Item Specific Help Supervisor Password controls access to the setup utility. The BIOS Setup program allows you to specify passwords in the Security menu. The passwords control access to the BIOS and certain Security menu options during system startup. The passwords are not case sensitive. In other words, it makes no difference whether you enter a password using upper or lowercase letters. The BIOS Setup program allows you to specify two separate passwords: a Supervisor password and a User password. When disabled, anyone may access all BIOS Setup program functions. When enabled, the Supervisor password is required for entering the BIOS Setup program and having full access to all Security menu options. System Password: Set Supervisor Password This field allows you to set the User password. To set the User password, highlight this field and press [Enter].
