Password Protection For Bios Setup (Supervisor And User Password) - Fujitsu Siemens Computers CELSIUS Mobile H230 Operating Manual

Password protection for BIOS Setup (supervisor and
user password)
We recommend that you print out the following instructions, as these cannot be displayed while
setting the password.
You prevent unauthorised opening of the BIOS Setup with both the supervisor and the user password.
With the supervisor password you have access to all functions of the BIOS Setup, and with the user
password only to part of the functions. You can only set a user password if a supervisor password
has already been assigned.
Set the supervisor and user password
► Enter the BIOS Setup by pressing F2 during system startup.
► Select the Security menu.
► Mark the Set Supervisor Password field and press the Enter key.
With Enter new Password: you are then requested to enter a password.
► Enter the password and press the Enter key.
With Confirm new Password you are asked to confirm the password.
► Enter the password again and press the Enter key.
With Notice: Changes have been saved you receive a confirmation that the new password has been
saved.
► To assign the user password, mark the field Set User Password and proceed exactly as when
configuring the supervisor password.
If you do not want to make any other settings, you can exit BIOS Setup.
► Select the Exit Saving Changes option in the Exit menu.
The notebook is rebooted and the new password is effective. If you now want to open the BIOS Setup,
you must first enter your supervisor or user password. Please note that you only have access to a
few BIOS settings with the user password.
Changing supervisor or user password
► Enter the BIOS Setup by pressing F2 during system startup.
► Select the Security menu.

You can only change the supervisor password when you have logged into the BIOS Setup with the
supervisor password.
