Setting Power-On
Password Jumpers

If you forget your Power-On Password, you will need to disable
it by setting the appropriate jumper on the system board.

1. Locate the appropriate jumper. For Pentium systems, this

jumper is labeled E6. For Pentium II systems, it is labeled
P2. By default, the Power-On Password is enabled,
meaning there is a plug on pins 5 and 6.

Locating the P2 Jumper (Pins 5-7) on the Pentium II System Board

2. To disable the Power-On Password, move the plug from

pins 5 and 6 to pins 6 and 7.

3. To set a new Power-On Password, put the plug from pins 6

and 7 to pins 5 and 6, then reestablish the password using
the Security Management feature in Computer Setup.
