When this function is selected, the following message appears at the center of
the screen to assist you in creating a password.

Type the password, up to eight characters, and press <Enter>. The password
typed now will clear any previously entered password from CMOS memory. You
will be asked to confirm the password. Type the password again and press
<Enter>. You may also press <Esc> to abort the selection.

word. A message will confirm the password being disabled. Once the password
is disabled, the system will boot and you can enter BIOS Setup freely.

Setup" menu, you will be prompted for the password every time the system
reboots or any time you try to enter BIOS Setup.
