When a password has been enabled, you will be prompted to enter it
every time you try to enter Setup. This prevents an unauthorized
person from changing any part of your system configuration.
Additionally, when a password is enabled, you can also require the
BIOS to request a password every time your system is rebooted. This
would prevent unauthorized use of your computer.
You determine when the password is required within the BIOS
Features Setup Menu and its Security option (see Section 3). If the
Security option is set to “System”, the password will be required both at
boot and at entry to Setup. If set to “Setup”, prompting only occurs
when trying to enter Setup.
4.13 IDE HDD Auto Detection

press the Y key; to skip to the next drive, press the N key. If you
accept the values, the parameters will appear listed beside the drive
letter on the screen.
