When you press <Enter> on this item you get a confirmation dialog box with a message similar to:
Pressing "Y" loads the BIOS default values for the most stable, minimal-performance system operations.

3-10. Load Optimized Defaults

When you press <Enter> on this item you get a confirmation dialog box with a message similar to:
Pressing "Y" loads the default values that are factory settings for optimal performance system operations.

3-11. Set Password

Set Password: Can enter but do not have the right to change the options of the setup menus. When you
select this function, the following message will appear at the center of the screen to
assist you in creating a password.
Type the password, up to eight characters in length, 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 and not
enter a password.
To disable a password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to enter the password. A message will
confirm the password will be disabled. Once the password is disabled, the system will boot and you can
enter Setup freely.
When a password has been enabled, you will be prompted to enter it every time you try to enter Setup.
This prevents an unauthorized person from changing any part of your system configuration.
Additionally, when a password is enabled, you can also require the BIOS to request a password every
time your system is rebooted. This would prevent unauthorized use of your computer.
You determine when the password is required within the BIOS Features Setup Menu and its Security
option. If the Security option is set to "System", the password will be required both at boot and at entry to
Setup. If set to "Setup", prompting only occurs when trying to enter Setup.
