If you forget the password, you cannot gain access to your system. Be sure to write down
the password in a safe place only you can refer to in case you forget the password.
ã If you select Setup in the Security Option, the computer asks for a password next time
you try to enter the CMOS Setup Utility. If you select System, the computer asks for a
password next time you start the computer and also when you try to enter the CMOS
Setup Utility. Setting the System password prevents unauthorized users from using the
computer or changing the system setup.
