Type the password with up to 8 characters and then press Enter key. This will clear all
previously typed CMOS passwords. You will be requested to confirm the password. Type the
password again and press Enter key. You may press Esc key to abandon password entry
operation.
To clear the password, just press Enter key when password input window pops up. A
confirmation message will be shown on the screen as to whether the password will be disabled. You
will have direct access to BIOS setup without typing any password after system reboot once the
password is disabled.
Once the password feature is used, you will be requested to type the password each time you
enter BIOS setup. This will prevent unauthorized persons from changing your system configurations.
Also, the feature is capable of requesting users to enter the password prior to system boot to
control unauthorized access to your computer. Users may enable the feature in Security Option of
Advanced BIOS Features. If Security Option is set to System, you will be requested to enter the
password before system boot and when entering BIOS setup; if Security Option is set to Setup, you
will be requested for password for entering BIOS setup.
