Setup Password
Use the Setup password to protect the system configuration from
unauthorized changes. After you establish the setup password, you
cannot change the system configuration until you enter the setup
password.
IMPORTANT: Type carefully because the password does not display
as you type it. If you choose to, you can use the same password for
setup and for power-on.
The next time you run Computer Setup, a "password" prompt
appears on the screen. If you enter the password incorrectly, you
are prompted to reenter the password.
