The jumper setting Switch 4 of SW4 on the system main board, the default setting is “OFF:
Enable Password Check”, this means that the system will always check the password when users set
in. However, if users miss their own password, the servicers can switch the jumper to “ON: Disable
Password Check” and then the Setup passsword and Power-on password will be unlocked.
Therefore, users can reset their new password. (Refer to Chapter 5 Jumper and Connector for more
information on setting the switches).
IMPORTANT:
If Setup password is forgot by users, service technicians may need to update computers’ BIOS
or set up jumper SW4 Switch 4 on mainboard to bypass.
IMPORTANT:
If Power-on password is forgot by users, service technicians may set the jumper SW4 to bypass
password check, then remove the password.
