Boot Order Allows you to specify the order in which
attached peripheral devices (such as diskette
drive, hard drive, CD-ROM, or network
interface card) are checked for a bootable
operating system image. Each device on the
list may be individually excluded from or
included for consideration as a bootable
operating system source. For systems with
more than one attached diskette or disk drive,
a submenu allows you to specify the order in
which the devices are assigned drive letters.
MS-DOS drive lettering assignments
may not apply after a non-MS-DOS
operating system has started.
To boot one time from a device other than the
default device specified in Boot Order, restart
the computer and press F9 when the F10 =
Setup message appears on the screen. When
POST is completed, a list of bootable devices
is displayed. Use the arrow keys to select a
device and press the Enterkey.
Security Setup Password Allows you to set and enable setup
(administrator) password.
If the setup password is set, it is
required to change Computer Setup
options, flash the ROM, and make
changes to certain plug and play settings
under Windows. Also, this password
must be set in order to use some
Compaq remote security tools.
Power-On Password Allows you to set and enable power-on
password.
Support for Computer Setup options may vary depending on your specific hardware
configuration.
