Step 4: Enable BIOS smart card security
This step must be performed by the BIOS administrator. Follow these
steps to enable BIOS smart card security on your OmniBook (if it is
supported):
1. Click Start, Programs, HP Security System, Smart Card Security
Manager to run the Smart Card Security Manager.
2. Click the BIOS Password tab.
3. Insert a smart card into the reader. Ensure this card is the one you want
to be the BIOS Administrator card. For Windows NT, this could be the
NT administrator card.
4. If the Enable button is dimmed, BIOS security is not supported. Skip
to “Step 5” on page 10.
5. Click Enable to create the BIOS Administrator card.
Note For ease of use, HP recommends that you do not enable the option
requiring the PIN at boot. The presence of the card unlocks the computer.
