30 Chapter 2
Resetting a Password
If you have forgotten the user password, the system will continue to function normally but you will have limited
access to the Setup Utility.
If you have enabled the Password on Boot field and you forget the supervisor password, you will not be able to
boot up the system. The same thing applies if you forget the HDD password.
To clear a lost user or supervisor password you need to short the clear password hardware gap located on the
mainboard. Go to page 85 for instructions.
