Using passwords in the Windows® operating system
5.375 x 8.375 ver 2.3
❖ A HDD password— A hard disk drive password that
protects your data by requiring a password when you try
to access the hard disk, whether it is in your computer or
in another system. You can set a hard disk drive user
password and/or a hard disk drive master password.
If you choose to set a hard disk drive user password, we
strongly recommend that you set a hard disk drive master
password as well.
If you set a hard disk drive user password and later forget the
password, YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO ACCESS YOUR
HARD DISK AGAIN, unless you have set a hard disk drive
master password.
Toshiba is not responsible for any losses that may occur to
you, your organization or others as a result of the inability to
access the hard drive.
User-level passwords
The user-level password is the basic level of password
security. You can use it as both a power-on password and an
instant password. For most users, this is all the password
security you will need.
Make sure you use a password you can remember easily. If
you ever forget your password, contact your network
administrator.
Setting a user-level password
To set (register) a user-level password:
1 Click Start, All Programs, Toshiba, Utilities, and then
click Password Utility.
