TSETUP and Passwords
This chapter explains how to use the TSETUP utility to configure your
computer and how to set passwords. TSETUP is an MS-DOS-based
program that provides similar functions to Hardware Setup and Toshiba
Power Extensions (refer to the respective online manuals or help files).
The following features, explained in this chapter, are not available in
Hardware Setup: HDD Mode. The SYSTEM SETUP screen is displayed
when you execute the file TSETUP.EXE, which is stored in the Windows
subdirectory on your hard disk.
If the supervisor password is set and you log onto the computer with the
user password, you cannot access the TSETUP program.
TSETUP
When you configure the computer with TSETUP, the computer stores your
selected values in memory that is backed up by the internal battery
powered Real Time Clock (RTC).
If the RTC battery fully discharges, configuration data is lost. A checksum
error is displayed when you start the computer and the system
configuration returns to default values. To charge the RTC battery,
connect the AC adaptor and turn on the computer’s power. The RTC
battery does not charge when the computer is turned off.
