■
Device control feature parameters, such as changing
I/O addresses and boot devices.
■
System Data Security feature parameters, such
as passwords.

SECURITY MENU – SETTING THE SECURITY FEATURES
The Security menu allows you to set up the data security
features of your notebook to fit your operating needs
and to view the current data security configuration. (See
Navigating through the Setup Utility on page 2 for more
information.)
The following tables show the names of the menu fields
for the Security Menu and its submenus, all the options
for each field, the default settings and a description of
the field's function and any special information needed
to help understand the field's use. The default condition
is no passwords required and no write protection.
Remember your passwords! If you set and
forget your User and Master hard disk
passwords, Fujitsu America, Inc. will not be
able to reset it. You may lose data and have
to replace your system board or hard disk
drive.
■
Entering a password incorrectly 3 times in
a row causes the keyboard and mouse to
be locked out and the warning [System
Disabled] to be displayed. If this happens, restart the computer by turning off
and on the power with the power switch
and use the correct password on reboot.
■
If you make an error when re-entering
the password a Warning will display on
the screen. To try again press [Enter],
then retype the password. Press [Esc] to
abort the password setting process.
■
If Password on Boot is Disabled you will
not have to type your password upon
resuming the system from the Hibernate
modes. Security menu will work only if

Be careful of the operating environment when booting from a CD or you may overwrite files by mistake.
■
A bootable CD-ROM has either a floppy disk or hard drive format. When the bootable CD-ROM is used,
drive allocations change automatically without changing the BIOS setup. If floppy disk format is used, the
CD-ROM becomes Drive A. The CD-ROM will only take drive C: (hard drive format) if the internal hard
drive is not present or is disabled. The bootable CD-ROM can never use a C: designation if a formatted
internal hard drive is present since the C: designator is always reserved for the internal drive. The boot
sequence ignores the new drive designations, but your application software will use the new designations.
