.

Setup Utility and Windows Passwords

password, write down the password and store it in a secure
location away from the computer.

security features function independently. For example, a device
disabled in the Setup utility cannot be enabled in Windows. Note
the following password considerations:
■
Setup utility passwords
are set in the Setup utility.
■
Windows passwords
are set in the Windows operating system.
■
If you forget the power-on password and the administrator
password set in the Setup utility, you cannot start up the
computer or restore from hibernation. Call Customer Care
or your service partner for additional information.
