Boot from Removable Media
With this BIOS feature, you can manage/control unauthorised booting of an operating
system from external media (e.g. USB stick, USB CD-ROM drive etc.) We recommend
that you configure the hard disk as the first boot medium in order to prevent access
to your system by boot CDs and bootable media.
The condition for this BIOS feature is that you have assigned at
least the supervisor password.
► Call up the BIOS Setup and select the Security menu.
► Highlight the Boot from Removable Media field and press the Enter key.
► Select the entry All (if you want everyone to be allowed to boot) or Supervisor Only (if you
only want the supervisor to be authorised to do this) and press the Enter key.
If you do not want to change any other settings you can exit the BIOS Setup.
► From the Exit menu, choose the option Exit Saving Changes.
► Press the Enter key and select Yes.
The notebook will restart and the settings will be adopted.
Owner Information (device-dependent)
The BIOS feature Owner Information enables you to enter up to 80 characters of text
which is displayed in the bottom left corner of the screen before the operating system
boots up. You could use this feature for example to put your name and telephone
number on the notebook in case it is lost or stolen.
Requirements:
•
You have been assigned at least the supervisor password.
•
In the BOOT menu, the Boot time diagnostic screen option is set to enabled.
► Call up the BIOS Setup and select the Security menu.
