Windows Power Management
Control Panels
The Power Management icon in the Windows
98 SE Control Panel allows you to configure
some of the power management settings that
are normally controlled by the BIOS. For
instance, you can set timeout values in the
Power Management Control Panel for turning
off the display and for turning off hard disks.
You can specify these timeout values based on
whether you are running on batteries or AC.
DATA SECURITY
Your LifeBook C Series has a built-in hardware
control password security feature that allows
you to protect the data stored in the notebook
from unauthorized access. Your operating
system and some applications have
software
control password security features that allow you
to protect all or portions of the data stored in the
notebook from unauthorized access.
Hardware Data Security Features
When you are using your notebook's built-in
hardware control password to gain access to the
notebook the actual password will not appear
on the screen. This is a safety precaution. The
hardware control security parameters are set
from the BIOS setup utility. (See Security Menu
in the BIOS Guide for more information on
setting and clearing passwords and enabling
and disabling built-in security features.)
Software Data Security Features
The operating system and some applications
have security features that are independent of
the built-in hardware protection features that
are controlled from the BIOS. See your software
documentation for more information about
these features.
