Problems” in Appendix D,
Changing a Power-on Password
To change your power-on password, follow these steps:
1.
If you do not have a hard disk, insert your Startup diskette
in drive A.
2.
Turn on or reset the computer. At the key prompt, enter
your current power-on password followed by a forward slash.
After the slash, enter the new password you want to use. For
example, if your current password is
123
and you want to
change it to ABC, type:
123/ABC
Do not use characters requiring the
Shift
key, such as
$, @,
or
*, in your new password. The computer does not
recognize the
Shift
key when you use your password to
access the system.
The screen does not display what you type.
3.
Press
Enter.
A happy face character appears and then the
computer loads MS-DOS.
