Starting the computer by password
If you have already registered a password, there is one way to start the
computer:
Enter the password manually.
The password is necessary only if the computer was shut down in boot
mode, not in Hibernation or Sleep mode.
To enter a password manually, follow these steps:
1. Turn on the power as described in Chapter 1, Getting Started. The
following message will appear in the screen:
Enter Password [ ]
At this point, the hotkeys FN + F1 to F9 do not work. They will function after
you enter the password.
2. Enter the Password.
3. Press ENTER.
If you enter the password incorrectly three times in a row, the computer
shuts off. In this case, you must turn the computer back on to retry
password entry.
