If Setup Password is set to Enabled, you must enter the correct setup password
before you can modify the majority of the System Setup options.
When you start the System Setup program, the System Setup screen appears with
the Setup Password
option highlighted, prompting you to type the password.
If you do not enter the correct password, the system lets you view, but not modify,
the System Setup screen—with the following exception: you can still modify the Sys-
tem Date, System Time, CPU
Speed, Keyboard NumLock, and PC Speaker options.
NOTE: You can use the Password Status option in conjunction with Setup Password
to protect the system password from unauthorized changes. For more information,
see “Password Status” found earlier in this chapter.
