Disabling a Forgotten Password
The computer's software security features include a system password and a setup password, which are discussed in detail in Section 4, "Using the System Setup
Program," in the User's Guide. A password jumper on the system board enables these password features or disables them and clears any password(s) currently in
use.
To disable a forgotten system password or setup password, perform the following steps.
1. Open the front bezel (see "Removing the Front Bezel" in "Troubleshooting Your System").
2. Remove the system cover.
3. Refer to FigureA-2 for the location of the password jumper (labeled "PASSWD") on the system board.
4. Remove the jumper plug from the PASSWD jumper.
5. Replace the right-side computer cover, and then reconnect the computer to an electrical outlet and turn it on.
The existing passwords are not disabled (erased) until the system boots with the PASSWD jumper plug removed. However, before you assign a new system
and/or setup password, you must install the jumper plug.
CAUTION: See "Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge" in the safety instructions at the front of this guide.
