The master password is used to remove DriveLock protection and
to gain access to the hard drive instead of the user password. The
owner of the master password may be the system administrator.
If you forget your user or master password, contact Compaq
customer support for further instructions before proceeding.
To establish DriveLock protection:
Run Computer Setup by turning on or restarting the computer
(Start Æ Shut Down ÆRestart). When the blinking cursor appears
in the upper-right corner of the screen, press
1. Click the System Features icon Æ Security Management box
Æ DriveLock tab.
2. In the Current Drive section, select the appropriate drive from
the list.
3. In the Drive Protection section, click Set to establish
DriveLock protection for the selected hard drive.
4. Read the warning message. If you wish to continue, click OK.
5. In the Set User Password section, enter your new user
password. (You may use up to 32 alphanumeric characters,
and you may use the same password you are using for the
power-on password.)
Type carefully because the password does not display
as you type it.
