Password Setting
To use this command, highlight it in the main menu and press
Enter. A message will appear prompting you to enter a password.
Type in a password. The password is case sensitive, and can
be up to 8 alphanumeric characters. Press Enter when you finish
typing in the password.
If you typed in a password, the message "Confirm Password"
will appear. Confirm the password by typing it again and press-
ing Enter. The message box will close.
If you decide you don't want to set a password after you acti-
vate this command, or if you want to eliminate an existing pass-
word, press Enter without typing anything else. The message
"Password Disabled" will appear and the message box will close.
When you set a password, the Security Option line in BIOS
Features Setup controls when the password is required. You can
set the option to require the password when the system boots up
or when calling up the CMOS Setup utility. The mainboard ships
with no password.
IDE HDD Auto Detection
When you install an IDE hard drive, you can use this feature
to automatically detect the drive parameters and enter them in
the appropriate Hard Disk section of Standard CMOS Setup.
However, since the Auto settings in Standard CMOS Setup per-
form the same function, you do not need to configure IDE hard
disk drives from here. If you want to use this feature, highlight it
in the main menu and press the Enter key.
Save And Exit Setup
When you select this and press Enter the values entered dur-
ing the current session are recorded in CMOS memory.
Exit Without Saving
When you select this and press Enter the Setup Utility closes
without recording any changes made during the current session.
