need not provide the system password to boot the system.

Steps

1. To enter System Setup, press F2 immediately after turning on or rebooting your system.

2. On the System Setup Main Menu screen, click System BIOS > System Security.

3. On the System Security screen, verify that Password Status is set to Unlocked.

4. In the System Password field, type your system password, and press Enter or Tab.

Use the following guidelines to assign the system password:

● A password can have up to 32 characters.

A message prompts you to reenter the system password.

5. Reenter the system password, and click OK.

6. In the Setup Password field, type your setup password and press Enter or Tab.

A message prompts you to reenter the setup password.

7. Reenter the setup password, and click OK.

8. Press Esc to return to the System BIOS screen. Press Esc again.

A message prompts you to save the changes.

NOTE:

Password protection does not take effect until the system reboots.

Using your system password to secure your system

About this task

If you have assigned a setup password, the system accepts your setup password as an alternate system password.

Steps

1. Turn on or reboot your system.

2. Type the system password and press Enter.

Next steps

When Password Status is set to Locked, type the system password and press Enter when prompted at reboot.

NOTE:

If an incorrect system password is typed, the system displays a message and prompts you to reenter your password.

You have three attempts to type the correct password. After the third unsuccessful attempt, the system displays an error

message that the system has stopped functioning and must be turned off. Even after you turn off and restart the system,

the error message is displayed until the correct password is entered.
