Setup Utility

SECURITY MENU

The Security Menu can be used to set a user password and/or a supervisor password.
A User Password controls access to the system and Setup Utility program at boot up. If the
User Password feature has been enabled, you need to enter your User password correctly
whenever you boot the system before you can use it.
A Supervisor Password controls access to the BIOS and Setup Utility program. If the
Supervisor Password feature has been enabled, a Supervisor password must be entered
correctly before all options in the Setup Utility program are available (for example, to
disable password protection).
Press the right arrow (cursor) key to move to the Power Menu.

POWER MENU

The Power Menu can be used to enable or disable the system's power management
features. When the power management option is enabled, the following options appear in
the Power Menu:
T
Power Management
This feature lets you enable or disable BIOS power management.
T
Inactivity Timer
The Inactivity Timer lets you set the length of time that the system needs to be
inactive before entering its low-power mode. The low-power mode powers down
various devices in the system until you resume using it. You can select from
"Off," "1," "2," "4," "6," "8," "12" or "16 minutes." A setting of
1 minute achieves maximum power savings, while a setting of 16 minutes allows
maximum performance.
T
Fixed Disk
This option controls whether or not a spin down command is issued to the hard
drives when the system goes into a low-power mode. Your choices are "Enabled"
(default) or "Disabled."
T
VESA Video Power Down
This option controls power to the monitor during the low-power modes. Your
choices are "Disabled" or "Enabled."
Press the right arrow (cursor) key to move to the Boot Menu.
