Startup with password service diskette

The following steps describe how to use a password service diskette to
start the computer if you've forgotten the user's password. If you did not
make a password service diskette, contact your dealer.
1. Insert the password service diskette in the drive. See the Password
security section in Chapter 7, Setup and Password Security, for details
on how to create a password service diskette.
2. When you press Enter, the password will be deleted and the following
message appears.
Press Y to run the TSETUP program and set a new password.
Press N to restart the computer.
The password service diskette must be inserted in drive A, otherwise the
display will return to Password = . If you have inserted the diskette in
drive A and the message still appears, the password service diskette is
faulty. In this case, contact your dealer.
The password service diskette will not work in Hibernation or Standby
modes. In Hibernation mode, press the backspace button when you turn
on the power. The computer will start in Boot mode. Data saved in
Hibernation mode will be lost.

Power-up modes

The computer has the following power-up modes:


Boot: Computer shuts down without saving data. Always save your
work before you turn the computer off in boot mode.


Hibernation: Data in memory is saved to the hard disk.


Standby (Windows 98 only): Power remains on, saving data in RAM,
but the CPU and all other devices enter sleep mode.
Refer also to the sections Turning on the power and Turning off the power
in Chapter 3, Getting Started.

You can set any of the modes above in Windows Power Management
Properties and in the Power Saver Utility.
