Control Panel Display. You can lock the computer these ways:
Press the HP Quick Lock button—the five One-Touch buttons are located above the
keyboard.
–or–
Press CTRL+ALT+DEL and click Lock Computer. This option may not be available
in all configurations.
To unlock the computer, follow your normal logon steps.

To attach a security cable

Your computer includes a built-in connector you can use to secure the computer with a
cable and a lock (such as the Kensington MicroSaver lock system, available at many
computer stores).
1. Wrap the cable around a secure object, such as a table leg.
2. Loop the cable to create a slip knot around the stationary object, and make sure it
can't slip off.
3. Insert the lock into the security connector on the left side of the computer and release
the key. Store the key in a safe place away from the computer.
