Windows ME / 98SE / 2000 / XP, suspend mode and settings are determined by
settings in the Power Options Properties (Start > Control Panel > Power Options).
Using Password Protection
Two Levels of Password Protection are available. The BIOS
provides both a Supervisor and a User password. If you try to
activate both passwords, the Supervisor password must be set
first.
The passwords activate two different levels of protection:
1. System always asks for password every time it is powered
on.
2. System asks for password only when you attempt to enter
BIOS utility.
Have the Password Check item set in Advanced CMOS Setup
Menu (See previous section Advanced CMOS Setup). The
passwords are encrypted and stored in NVRAM. Make sure
you write them down or memorize them. If you lost the
passwords, the computer may need to be sent back to the
factory or to an authorized service dealer to reset the
passwords.
Auto-Detect Hard Disk
When selecting this option, AMIBIOS will automatically detect
the hard disk drive parameters. The Standard CMOS Setup
menu shows the drive parameters.
