Setting Power-On Password Jumpers

The power-on password feature is enabled or disabled by moving the jumper on the password
header located on the system board. The password header is labeled "E6 Password" on the Pentium
system board and labeled "Password" on the Pentium II system board.
The password header has three pins. The power-on password comes enabled by default with the
jumper on pins 5 and 6. To clear or disable the power-on password, move the jumper to pins 6 and 7.
