Passwords

As

many

as

three

passwords

may

be

needed

for

any

Lenovo

3000

computer:

the

power-on

password

(POP),

the

hard-disk

password

(HDP),

and

the

supervisor

password

(SVP).

If

any

of

these

passwords

has

been

set,

a

prompt

for

it

appears

on

the

screen

whenever

the

computer

is

turned

on.

The

computer

does

not

start

until

the

password

is

entered.

Exception:

If

only

an

SVP

is

installed,

the

password

prompt

does

not

appear

when

the

operating

system

is

booted.

Power-on

password:

A

power-on

password

(POP)

protects

the

system

from

being

powered

on

by

an

unauthorized

person.

The

password

must

be

entered

before

an

operating

system

can

be

booted.

Hard-disk

password:

There

are

two

hard-disk

passwords

(HDPs):

v

User

HDP—for

the

user

v

Master

HDP—for

the

system

administrator,

who

can

use

it

to

get

access

to

the

hard

disk

even

if

the

user

has

changed

the

user

HDP

Note:

There

are

two

modes

for

the

HDP:

User

only

and

Master

+

User

.

The

Master

+

User

mode

requires

two

HDPs;

the

system

administrator

enters

both

in

the

same

operation.

The

system

administrator

then

provides

the

user

HDP

to

the

system

user.

Attention:

If

the

user

HDP

has

been

forgotten,

check

whether

a

master

HDP

has

been

set.

If

it

has,

it

can

be

used

for

access

to

the

hard

disk

drive.

If

no

master

HDP

is

available,

neither

Lenovo

nor

Lenovo

authorized

servicers

provide

any

services

to

reset

either

the

user

or

the

master

HDP,

or

to

recover

data

from

the

hard

disk

drive.

The

hard

disk

drive

can

be

replaced

for

a

scheduled

fee.

Supervisor

password:

A

supervisor

password

(SVP)

protects

the

system

information

stored

in

the

BIOS

Setup

Utility.

The

user

must

enter

the

SVP

in

order

to

get

access

to

the

BIOS

Setup

Utility

and

change

the

system

configuration.

Attention:

If

the

SVP

has

been

forgotten

and

cannot

be

made

available

to

the

servicer,

there

is

no

service

procedure

to

reset

the

password.

The

system

board

must

be

replaced

for

a

scheduled

fee.
