Security Windows Passwords Function Administrator password* Protects Windows administrator-level access to notebook contents. User password* Protects access to notebook contents after exit from standby. *For information about setting a Windows administrator password or a Windows user password, select Start > Help and Support. HP and Windows Password Guidelines HP and Windows passwords are not interchangeable. You must use an HP password at an HP password prompt and a Windows password at a Windows password prompt. For example: ■ If a power-on password is set, the power-on password (not a Windows password) must be entered when the notebook starts up or restores from hibernation. ■ If you set Windows to prompt for a password before resuming from standby, a Windows password (not a power-on password) must be entered to resume from standby.
