appears every time the system is powered on) or Setup (the password prompt appears only when BIOS is run).
The password is stored in CMOS RAM. User can enter a password by typing on the keyboard. As user select
Supervisor or User. The BIOS prompts for a password, user must set the Supervisor password before user can
set the User password. Enter 1-6 character as password. The password does not appear on the screen when
