How to Set an Administrator Password 3 Security and Manageability Features Setting Passwords Setting the Administrator Password Set the Administrator password to protect the PC's configuration in Setup. An Administrator password can provide a power-on password prompt to prevent your PC being started or used in your absence. If you have set both an Administrator password and a User password, and you enter the Setup program by using the User password, you will be restricted in your ability to change setup items. If you enter the Setup program with an Administrator password, you will have no restrictions. To set an Administrator password: 1 Enter the Setup program, by pressing F2 during startup. 2 Select the Security menu group. 3 Select the Administrator Password submenu. 4 Choose the Set Administrator Password setup item. You will be asked to enter your password twice. Save your changes when you exit the Setup program by selecting "Exit", then "Save and Exit". To remove the password, follow the same procedure as to set a password. You will be asked to enter the existing password first. Then, for the new password, leave the password field blank and press Enter. To confirm your choice, press Enter a second time. 63
