Password Setting
This section describes the two access modes that can be set using the options found on the Supervisor Password and User Password.
Supervisor Password and User Password
The options on the Password screen menu make it possible to restrict access to the Setup program by enabling you to set passwords for two different access modes: Supervisor mode and User mode.
In general, Supervisor mode has full access to the Setup options, whereas User mode has restricted access to the options. Thus by setting separate Supervisor and User password, a system supervisor can limit who can change critical Setup values.
Enter Password
Type the password, up to eight characters, and press <Enter>. The password typed now will clear any previously entered password from CMOS memory. You will be asked to confirm the password. Type the password again and press <Enter>. You may also press <Esc> to abort the selection and not enter a password.
To disable password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to enter password. A message will confirm the password being disabled. Once the password is disabled, the system will boot and you can enter Setup freely.
HOT-555 User's Manual 32
Password Disable
If you select System at Security Option of BIOS Features Setup Menu, you will be prompted for the password every time the system is rebooted or any time you try to enter Setup. If you select Setup at Security Option of BIOS Features Setup Menu, you will be prompted only when you try to enter Setup.
Warning : Retain a safe record of your password. If you've forgotten or loosed the password, the only way to access the system is to clear CMOS memory, please refer to "Clear CMOS" or "Clear Password" section.
