DESCRIPTION
Enabled requires a password on
boot (cold boot only — no
password required for warm boot).
Requires the prior setting of a
Supervisor and/or User password.
If disabled, password(s) are
required for entering Setup but
are not required for booting.
If a Supervisor password is set
and this option is disabled, the
BIOS boots without asking for a
password.
Supervisor setting restricts
the use of diskette drives to a
supervisor. Requires setting the
Supervisor password.
Write protected helps prevent
viruses. When write protected,
operating systems (and viruses and
application programs) which
attempt to modify the boot sector
will not be able to do so.
When a schedule is specified,
displays a message during bootup
asking (Y/N) if you have backed
up the system or scanned it for
viruses.
Message returns on each boot
until you respond with "Y".
Daily displays the message on
the first boot of the day, weekly
on the first boot after Sunday,
and monthly on the first boot of
the month.
