Set Supervisor Password (Security Menu)
You can set a password for access to the Aptio Setup Utility. This will not affect
access to the computer OS (only the Aptio Setup Utility). If you set a supervisor
password you can then add a user password.
Set User Password (Security Menu)
You can set a password for user mode access to the Aptio Setup Utility. This will
not affect access to the computer OS, (only the Setup utility) unless you choose to
set a Password on Boot (see below). Many menu items in the Aptio Setup Utility
cannot be modified in user mode. You can only set the user password after you
have set the supervisor password.
Note: To clear existing passwords press Enter and type the existing password, then
press Enter for the new password (without typing any password entry) and Enter
again to confirm the password clearance.
Secure Boot (Advanced Menu)
Secure Boot prevents unauthorized operating systems and software from loading
during the startup process. Secure Boot is available as a menu option if you have
Windows 8 set as your operating system, and have enabled UEFI Boot (see
“Boot
Menu” on page 5 - 12 ). Enabling Secure Boot will bring up the Secure Boot Mode
menu to enable you to configure Secure Boot as Standard (with a fixed secure boot
policy), or Custom (which enables you to make changes to the Image Execution
Policy and Key Management database).

dor and you may lose all
