197 Toshiba Utilities Setting user passwords Using an instant password An instant password secures your system with a single keystroke. Use this feature when you leave your desk for a few minutes and don't want to turn off the computer. To use an instant password, press Fn, then press F1. This freezes the keyboard and AccuPoint II and blanks the screen. An instant password has no effect on an optional serial mouse or trackball. 1 To unlock your system: ❖ If you have not registered a user password, press Enter. ❖ If you have registered a user password, press Enter. Type your password then press Enter. If you enter the password correctly, the computer returns to where it was when you enabled the instant password. Setting a user password To register a password for the instant and power-on password functions: 2 Open the Start menu, click Control Panel, then click Toshiba HWSetup. NOTE: The Control Panel window must be set to Classic View to access the Toshiba HWSetup icon. 3 Select the Password tab. 4 Click Registered. 5 Type your password in the Enter Password box and click OK. 6 Type the password again in the Verify Password box and click OK. 7 Click Exit.
