164 Keeping Your Files Safe Using a password in Windows 95 and Windows 98 Power-on password Whenever you start your computer with a power-on (user-level) password in effect, the computer prompts you to enter the password before it goes through its normal startup procedure. The password operates regardless of whether the computer is in Resume Mode. When your computer prompts you to enter your password, type it in and press Enter. If you enter the password correctly, the computer continues with its normal startup procedure. If you enter an incorrect password, the computer beeps. After three incorrect attempts, the system turns off automatically. If you've forgotten your password and you have a password service diskette: 1 If your diskette drive is not installed in the SelectBay, connect the external diskette drive or swap drives in the SelectBay. To swap drives, see "Swapping SelectBay modules" on page 37. 2 Turn on the computer with Resume Mode turned off. The system prompts you for your password. 3 Insert the password service diskette into the diskette drive and press Enter. The system prompts you, "Set Password Again (Y/N)?" CAUTION: The password service diskette is not reusable. Once you use it, you must create a new diskette, even if you set the same password. 4 To enter TSETUP and reset your password, press Y. Follow the instructions in "Creating a user-level password" on page 175 to reset your password. To remove your password, press N. It will no longer be registered. Part II: Technical Reference
