Setting Power-On
Password Jumpers
If you forget your Power-On Password, you will need to disable
it by setting the appropriate jumper on the system board.
1. Locate the appropriate jumper. For Pentium systems, this
jumper is labeled E6. For Pentium II systems, it is labeled
P2. By default, the Power-On Password is enabled,
meaning there is a plug on pins 5 and 6.

2. To disable the Power-On Password, move the plug from
pins 5 and 6 to pins 6 and 7.
3. To set a new Power-On Password, put the plug from pins 6
and 7 to pins 5 and 6, then reestablish the password using
the Security Management feature in Computer Setup.
