Password Security This Personal Computer supports several password security features-a setup password, a power-on password, and a password to lock a MultiBay hard drive. The power-on password prevents unauthorized use of the Personal Computer by requiring entry of a password to access applications or data each time the Personal Computer is turned on or restarted. The setup password specifically prevents unauthorized access to Computer Setup, and can also be used as an override to the power-on password. That is, when prompted for the power-on password, entering the setup password instead will allow access to the Personal Computer. 6-6 Quick Setup & User's Guide
