Setting Your Boot Protection (Very Important)
After installing and configuring nTracker, you can further protect your computer after it has been
lost or stolen by configuring to disable booting from Floppy or CD drive in the BIOS. It is also
good idea to set a supervisory password for the BIOS, so no one else can enter the BIOS and
change the setting back to enable Floppy and CD booting.
With BIOS supervisory password set and Floppy and CD booting disabled, the computer hard
drive is protected from being erased by installing another copy of operating system. Boot
password is not recommended, since we want the culprit who has your computer to logon to
Internet so they can be traced.
To configure BIOS password and disable Floppy and CD booting, you will need to enter BIOS
configuration. Entering BIOS configuration differs from different model of computers. Refer to
nTracker user manual and your computer documentation for detailed information.
Normally you can enter BIOS configuration setup by pressing DEL key or F2 key when the
BIOS screen appears. (Example shown below)
